Fractional CMO • Full-Stack B2B Marketing Leader • Founder & CEO of MoatSquare • Author of 4 Books
I am a Fractional CMO and full-stack B2B marketing leader, Founder & CEO of MoatSquare, and author of 4 published marketing books. With a Computer Science engineering background and over 18 years in the marketing trenches since my college days in 2008, I run every lever of B2B growth as one system—from GTM strategy and positioning to ABM, paid campaigns, analyst relations, partner and customer programs, martech, and AI search—with rare skin in the game coding and deploying live software products.
From 2008 to today.
My journey began in 2008 during my college days as an SEO blogger and freelancer while pursuing Computer Science & Engineering. Over the next decade (2011–2021), I stepped into marketing leadership across digital marketing agencies, B2B services, EdTech, and innovation consulting firms. From 2021 through October 2025, I led enterprise marketing and marketing operations for a high-growth B2B2X SaaS Fintech firm, directing global demand generation and analyst relations with direct multi-million dollar revenue accountability. In November 2025, I launched MoatSquare to engineer compounding organic demand moats and AI-native growth engines for technology enterprises.
Alongside scaling MoatSquare and authoring 4 published marketing strategy books (Built to Compound, Beyond Discoverability, The Indispensable Marketer, and Marketing the Internet), I advise B2B companies across SaaS, fintech, technology, and services as a Fractional CMO. That means owning GTM strategy and positioning, ABM on first-party intent data, paid campaigns, analyst relations, review portals, email, webinars, podcasts, community, partner and customer marketing, and the martech and data stack that ties every dollar to revenue.
Across every engagement, one operational North Star has remained constant: full end-to-end marketing growth accountability directly tied to qualified pipeline generation and measurable revenue outcomes—not vanity metrics.
