About Me

I help early-stage teams land and keep enterprise customers. Most startups promise more than they can deliver. I close that gap by scoping what's realistic, building the systems to execute, and making sure customers stay and grow.

At Extratime, I created Live Odds, which generated over €1M in revenue and deployed in 1,000+ matches. I built operations that allowed a 2-person core team to serve enterprise clients across 5 countries efficiently. At Mantis, I turned a churned account into a productized offering that now drives more than 50% of the company's revenue.

I focus on fixing structure first by establishing clear roles, asynchronous processes, and operational visibility. Then I make deployments work effectively. I am technical when needed, having built data pipelines in Python, evaluation tools using Next.js, Python, and Postgres, and currently shipping a native iOS app in Swift.

In my current role as Chief Operating Officer at Mantis-AI, I lead solutions, operations, and AI deployment. I rebuilt a churned enterprise client offering from scratch, improving brand detection accuracy to 95% and significantly increasing revenue. I also built internal tools to scale operations and clarified roles across sales, solutions, and customer success to triple revenue in 8 months.

Previously, at Extratime, I managed deployments for major clients including Amazon Prime Video and Sporting CP, built asynchronous operational systems that cut development time by 68%, and led the company through international expansion and operational restructuring, growing revenue more than 4x.

I have a strong background in product management and business development, having launched new features generating significant revenue and built scalable operational frameworks to accelerate product releases and guarantee client success.

My experience also includes consulting on cryptocurrency strategy, investment product leadership, and founding roles in blockchain and fintech communities. I am passionate about innovation, operational excellence, and driving growth in early-stage and technology-driven companies.
