  • Demonstrated success opening new channels, partnerships, and revenue streams.
  • Experience with SMB, distribution, retail, indirect channels, or strategic partnerships.
  • Strong commercial and financial acumen with prior P&L ownership.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to build businesses from the ground up.
