Interim Executive | Fractional COO/CSO | Strategic Advisor

Building the Operational Engine for High-Growth Tech

I bridge the gap between deep technological innovation and commercial scalability. Specializing in Fintech, SaaS, and AI, I help organizations navigate critical growth phases, pivot business models, and secure investor confidence.

Let's Discuss Your Mandate

When to Bring Me On Board

The Scale-Up & Funding Phase

You have a brilliant product (Web3, IoT, AI) but lack the corporate architecture to absorb growth or secure Series A+ funding. I build the investor-ready governance, financial reporting, and operational structures required to scale from prototype to international market presence.

The Business Model Pivot

Your project-based revenues are unpredictable, and you need to transition into a highly scalable, recurring Product-as-a-Service (SaaS) model. I architect and execute the Go-to-Market (GTM) strategy that shifts your valuation and secures predictable cash flow.

The AI Efficiency Challenge

You want to leverage Artificial Intelligence to grow your sales pipeline and optimize Customer Experience (CX), but without a linear increase in headcount. I design and implement LLM-based workflows (Google AI Ecosystem) to automate your "engine" for zero-headcount growth.

How I Support Your Organization

Interim Management (CSO/COO)

Stepping into your executive team to bridge leadership gaps, restructure operations, or execute high-stakes turnarounds with immediate impact.

Fractional Executive

Long-term, part-time strategic leadership for startups and scale-ups that need C-level experience without the full-time overhead.

Advisory Board / VR

Providing independent, tech-fluent commercial oversight and strategic sparring for CEOs, founders, and investors.

Commercial Leadership Meets Deep Tech

Companies don't just buy technology; they buy the execution that makes it profitable.

My career is built on translating complex systems—from agent-based AI environments in the 1990s to modern DLT/Blockchain and Google's Vertex AI today—into clear value propositions. As a Computer Science Engineer (Master's) with a certification in AI Strategy from MIT Sloan, I speak the language of your developers. As an experienced General Manager and Sales Leader with a 25+ year track record, I speak the language of your investors and enterprise clients.

I am a "human-in-the-loop" leader. I believe that structural excellence only works when combined with empathy. Whether I am restructuring a tech firm, scaling a sales team, or organizing structures on the soccer pitch—the team-first mentality is what ultimately builds a winning engine.
