Professional summary

I am an enterprise account executive and revenue growth professional with more than 10 years of international experience in B2B software sales, account management, renewals, and customer retention.

I specialize in protecting and expanding recurring revenue through contract renewals, churn prevention, renewal forecasting, executive stakeholder engagement, and strategic account planning.

I have managed complex enterprise relationships across Benelux, the Nordics, and wider EMEA markets, working with C-level stakeholders to demonstrate business value and deliver retention and expansion outcomes.

My experience includes enterprise technology ecosystems such as Microsoft Unified Support, NetApp cloud and data solutions, and Google Workspace. I have consistently driven upsell, cross-sell, renewal, and new-business opportunities.

I also bring modern RevOps capabilities, including HubSpot CRM optimization, AI-assisted sales workflows, agentic AI implementations, pipeline hygiene, and process automation.

Currently, I advise European B2B technology organizations on market entry, commercial execution, revenue retention, and AI-enabled sales operations through my consultancy work.
