Neil is as good as it gets when it comes to professional recruiting. As a client of Neil’s, he took the time to get to know me, my skill-set, and related job experience. He then recommended jobs that were a match for my talent profile. He took time to ensure the fit was right for me and that I’d be happy with my selection over the long term. Great people skills and knows his business. I would recommend Neil to anyone looking for job placement.
— Thomas Hackett, Application Sales Manger @Netsuite for Government
I had the pleasure of managing Neil in our Enterprise Group at 8x8. He first joined my team as an associate and quickly proved himself through his strong work ethic, ability to build trust with customers, and consistent execution. Because of his performance, I promoted him into a full-cycle enterprise role, where he continues to excel. Neil brings a strategic approach to complex accounts, collaborates seamlessly across teams, and consistently drives results, including helping to close some of our most challenging enterprise opportunities. He’s a strong asset to our team and someone I’m confident will succeed in any enterprise sales environment.
— Chris Verdier, Enterprise RVP @8X8

Neil was great to work with and cut right to the chase about the job openings at Oracle this past summer. We discussed my industry experience which then lead to placing me with the CX team here at my new company. It was a great fit and I was able to complete the entire process with Neil and team in less than a month. Thank you Neil for recruiting me. It was such a seamless and easy process. I truly appreciate your professionalism.

Why me?

I’m not your typical GTM consultant—I’ve built sales teams, sold into the enterprise, and learned from the best.

At Oracle, I hired and developed top SaaS talent, so I know what great reps actually look like.


At Salesforce, I mastered outbound on one of the best BDR teams in the world—where pipeline isn’t luck, it’s a system.


At 8x8, I took it to the enterprise—learning from elite sellers, navigating complex deals, and closing with executives.

Recruiting. Outbound. Enterprise execution.
That’s my trifecta—and it means I don’t just build sales strategy.
I help you build the team to run it.
