·
Led product marketing for a net-new WFM solution: category narrative, pricing & packaging, launch, and enablement.

Designed peer-to-peer advocacy tracks (speakers, references, content) tied to pipeline and adoption metrics.

Partnered with field marketing, sales, and Dreamforce teams to scale customer stories across regions and segments.
