About

Three times now I've been Chief of Staff to a chief executive. Nearly four years at Tata Communications, a $4B global telecom with 14,000 employees across 140 countries. Eight months at Circles.Life, at a completely different scale and speed. And from 2024 to 2025 at Digital Edge, a Stonepeak-backed data center platform with about 600 employees across eight markets.

6+ years in the role in total, which is unusual.

At Tata I held it for more than twice the average tenure.

In between, I've run things that weren't Chief of Staff work at all. At Tata I built a $40M ACV pipeline in under twelve months and closed $1.8M ACV. I co-led the management buyout of BitMEX Academy and raised about $1M in seed funding for the relaunched business, XD Academy, during the post-FTX downturn. I co-founded a boutique APAC growth consultancy and built a 12-advisor network. Building things that didn't exist yet changed how I think about planning work.

Executive operations: Annual and quarterly planning from board-level strategy down to individual KPIs. Leadership forums, business reviews, board reporting. At Tata I coordinated the global Leadership Forum of 150 AVPs, VPs and EVPs and designed and ran the CEO's three standing review forums. At Digital Edge I built the senior governance cadence from scratch and stood up a bi-monthly Country Review per market.

Commercial infrastructure: I've spent years designing GTM systems and time building pipeline inside one. At Tata I worked alongside McKinsey on a go-to-market re-segmentation of Americas Enterprise Sales, then built a $40M ACV pipeline of my own and closed $1.8M ACV. At Digital Edge I rebuilt the foundational GTM documents at platform, country and site level, institutionalized MEDDPICC across a 30-person sales team with a Salesforce opportunity-scoring framework grading funnel quality by account, rep and region, and I'm leading the company's first programmatic Annual Price Increase program, a 3% uplift across the eligible APAC book.

Building from zero: A management buyout, a seed round in a bad market, a consultancy from scratch, and BitMEX Academy taken from concept to launch in about three months, with over $1.5M in vendor contracts negotiated, 1,800 registered users and about 126K video views.

Recent Example: I conceived and delivered DEKO 2026, a three-day, 150-leader alignment event in Bangkok across every region and function, on time and inside a $200K budget in under ten weeks from green-light.

I've been based in Singapore since 2015, and I'm a US and French citizen. I work best close to a leader who moves fast and wants a counterpart who moves faster.
