Experience

When leading companies decide to "go Google," it's a huge win for spreading the power of cloud computing globally. But the Grove Sales team can't do it alone. I am a Sales Engineer. I work with the Sales team to engage with sales prospects, understand and assess customer requirements, prepare and present demonstrations of Google products, and address technical questions that arise throughout the sales process.

I am also a Google Apps Certified Deployment Specialist, having planned, lead and completed numerous successful deployment and change management projects for Enterprise sized organizations.
