Who I Am

A Career Built at the Intersection of Steel and Silicon.

Before Physical AI had a name, I was doing it. My earliest enterprise work put me inside OT environments — plant floors, SCADA systems, DCS architectures — long before the industry consensus that AI could operate reliably in the physical world. That early exposure gave me something most GTM leaders in this space simply don't have: genuine OT fluency.

The through-line of my career has always been the same problem: brilliant industrial technology with no commercial story. Engineers who could build systems that predict equipment failure, optimize energy consumption, or autonomously adjust production parameters — but couldn't translate that capability into a narrative that moved a VP of Operations or a CFO to sign. Bridging that gap is my superpower.

Today I operate at the exact convergence of Agentic AI, Industrial IoT, and OT/IT infrastructure — building the GTM architectures, category narratives, partner ecosystems, and sales motions that transform Physical AI platforms into scalable revenue engines. I'm looking for my next stage: a VP GTM, SVP Revenue, or CRO seat at a company building the industrial AI infrastructure of the next decade.

Core Expertise

Six Capabilities That Define the Category.

⚙️

Physical AI GTM Architecture

Building end-to-end go-to-market strategies for Physical AI platforms — ICP definition, category narrative, sales motion design, and revenue architecture from zero to scale in industrial markets.

🔗

OT/IT Convergence Strategy

Bridging the historic divide between Operational Technology and Information Technology — building narratives and commercial motions that resonate with both plant floor OT buyers and enterprise IT decision-makers.

🤖

Agentic AI Commercialization

Translating Agentic AI capabilities — autonomous inspection, predictive operations, real-time process optimization — into ROI frameworks and commercial narratives that drive enterprise industrial buying decisions.

🏭

Industrial IoT Revenue Architecture

Designing and executing IIoT revenue programs across manufacturing, energy, and oil & gas — from first POC through full platform deployment and partner-sourced pipeline expansion.

🛡️

Cyber-Physical Resilience Positioning

Elevating OT security and AI reliability into board-level conversations — creating the "cyber-physical resilience" narrative that unlocks CISO access, increases deal size, and differentiates from pure analytics vendors.

🚀

Category Creation & Partner Ecosystems

Establishing new Physical AI and Industrial IoT categories through narrative architecture, partner ecosystem development (SIs, OEMs, hyperscaler co-sell), and industry analyst engagement.

Industry Verticals

Deep Domain Experience Across Industrial Markets.

Work & Impact

Before-and-After. Not Job Descriptions.

2026 — Present
VP, GTM Strategy & Revenue – Physical AI Division
Open to Opportunities · Executive Exploration Phase

Leading end-to-end GTM architecture for a Physical AI platform targeting industrial, energy, and manufacturing sectors. Designing category entry strategy integrating Agentic AI agents, edge inference, and OT/IT convergence into a unified commercial motion.

  • Architecting ICP, category narrative, and partner ecosystem strategy from zero
  • Building hyperscaler co-sell programs across AWS, Azure, and GCP industrial channels

Senior Director, GTM & Revenue Strategy – Industrial IoT
Previous Executive Role · Industrial Technology

Inherited an unstructured GTM motion with inconsistent quota attainment and undefined ICP. Rebuilt the entire commercial architecture around Physical AI and OT/IT convergence, achieving $40M+ ARR growth in 30 months.

  • Drove $40M+ ARR growth through focused Physical AI and Industrial IoT GTM programs
  • Built and led an 18-person GTM team — SEs, Partner Managers, and Demand Gen — from ground zero
  • Launched predictive operations suite across 12 enterprise manufacturing accounts at $2M+ ACV
  • Established OT/IT convergence council with 6 Fortune 500 strategic accounts, generating $15M+ pipeline
  • Reduced average deal cycle from 14 months to 6 months through structured POC motion
2020 — 2023
Director of Sales Engineering & Solutions – Edge AI
Previous Role · Edge Intelligence & Industrial AI

Led the technical commercial arm of an Edge AI platform targeting industrial automation and smart factory segments. Built ROI frameworks and solution architectures that translated complex AI capabilities into plant floor buying decisions.

  • Closed $22M in net-new logos in industrial automation and smart factory
  • Created ROI frameworks for Agentic AI and cyber-physical resilience use cases — adopted company-wide
  • Developed Industry 4.0 enablement curriculum for 40-person sales organization
  • Established technical partnership with 2 major PLC/SCADA vendors for embedded distribution
2017 — 2020
GTM Manager – Industrial IoT & Connected Operations
Earlier Role · Industrial IoT Platform

Launched an IoT platform from zero commercial traction into discrete manufacturing and oil & gas verticals. Built the foundational GTM motion — ICP, messaging, partner program, and sales playbook — that the organization scaled for years after.

  • Exceeded quota by 137% in year one through targeted ICP development and account-based motion
  • Built the company's first partner program for industrial OEM integrations
  • Led vertical entry into upstream oil & gas — first $3M+ deal in sector
GTM Case Study

From $0 to $40M ARR: Winning the OT/IT Convergence Market.

The Challenge

A strong product. A broken GTM.

Inherited a Physical AI and Industrial IoT platform with strong engineering depth but zero commercial traction. The ICP was undefined, the sales team lacked OT fluency, there was no category narrative, and the partner ecosystem was nonexistent. Quota attainment was below 60%.

01
Redefined the ICPNarrowed to discrete manufacturing and upstream energy. Plant size: 500+ employees, existing SCADA/DCS. Mapped OT Sponsor + IT Champion + Economic Buyer for every deal.
02
Built the Category NarrativeAbandoned "IIoT platform" — too commoditized. Introduced "Physical AI Operations" with a core message: "Your operations generate more data than your team can process. We turn that data into autonomous action."
03
Redesigned the Sales MotionImplemented 3-stage motion: OT Discovery → Digital Twin POC → Full Platform Deployment. OT Discovery led by SEs with OT backgrounds. 60-day POC with defined success metrics tied to downtime or energy savings.
04
Built the Partner EcosystemPrioritized SIs with OT DNA. Integrated with 2 major PLC/SCADA vendors. Established AWS and Azure co-sell programs. Partner-sourced revenue grew from 0% to 35% of ARR.
05
Added Cyber-Physical Resilience LayerCreated board-level deck on OT security risk — unlocked CISO conversations, elevated deal size by an average of 40%, and differentiated from pure analytics vendors.
The Results

30 months. Complete transformation.

Every metric improved. The GTM rebuild didn't just fix quota attainment — it established a repeatable, scalable commercial engine that the organization could grow on for years.

"Physical AI is not sold — it is adopted. The GTM leader's job is to reduce the distance between a plant manager's instinct and an AI platform's capability. When that gap closes, the revenue follows."

📍 What I'm Thinking About Right Now

Agentic AI moving from pilot to production in industrial environments is the defining GTM challenge of 2026. Most enterprise buyers understand the concept — very few have a clear path from POC to operating at scale across a plant floor. The companies that solve this with a structured, OT-first commercial motion will own the category.

Alongside that, the cyber-physical resilience conversation has reached board level — and most Physical AI vendors are still treating it as a technical footnote. That's a massive GTM opening for any company willing to lead with resilience alongside autonomy.

And finally: the OT/IT convergence window is closing faster than most realize. The industrial buyers who are actively evaluating Physical AI platforms today will make consolidation decisions in the next 18–24 months. The companies that build GTM leadership now will be the ones writing the category definition. The rest will be integrators in someone else's ecosystem.
