About
I turn overlooked revenue into realized growth for companies operating across borders.
With 25+ years building, selling, and advising businesses across Dubai, Europe, and Asia, I specialize in the gap between what founders say their business does and what actually drives monetization. I%27ve built and exited a marketing agency and AI SaaS company, and now serve as fractional CMO to globally mobile operators who need someone who%27s lived the complexity of multi-market expansion, not just studied it.
My superpower is pattern recognition across cultural and regulatory contexts. I%27ve seen identical GTM strategies succeed spectacularly in one market and fail quietly in another, and I know why. I help boards navigate capital pressure with positioning intelligence, find the revenue streams hiding in plain sight, and build narratives that actually convert across different buyer psychologies.
Companies that benefit most from my advisory:
- Companies expanding into MENA/GCC, European, or Asian markets
- Family office-backed ventures needing sophisticated GTM strategy
- Globally mobile businesses struggling to scale beyond their home market
- Founders with strong product but unclear monetization paths
- Companies stuck between Series A metrics and real revenue
