About me (Kris)

With over 20 years of experience in data engineering and marketing, I've had the privilege of working in various global settings and competitive sectors. My career has spanned from Tokyo, Japan, where I improved back office technologies for financial securities, to Silicon Valley, where I honed my skills at companies like Logitech, Bill.com, and LivePerson. Throughout my career, I've developed a unique blend of technical and marketing expertise, with a focus on Business Intelligence, automation, and pre-settlement systems.

As a seasoned professional, I've had the opportunity to lead companies and consult for marketing agencies, leveraging my expertise in Revenue Operations (RevOps) to drive growth and profitability. My achievements include developing and implementing A/B testing systems, integrating sales, marketing, and technology to drive growth, and leading companies to adopt Tableau for marketing data analysis.

Currently, as COO of a digital advertising agency, I oversee all agency operations, focusing on stabilizing expenses and securing larger deals. I'm passionate about mentoring young digital agency founders and advising on RevOps and marketing strategies to boost inbound leads.
