John reported directly to Pari
“John and I worked together in Loop Commerce for almost 8 years and he reported directly to me 3 of them. John was the head of the G2M organization and was our Chief Commercial Officer. During the years John built a very strong sales organization, established sales methodologies and tools and successfully grew revenue and penetrated new markets and industries that led to the acquisition by Synchrony. John was a champion of our brand and was heavily involved in other aspects of the business- product strategy, marketing, customer success and was a key player in the development of these groups during the company’s growth. John was highly regarded by prospects, clients, industry thought-leaders, and especially his team and employees, and played a critical part in the growth of the company - he was an amazing team player. Hopefully we will be able to work together in the future.”

“I had the pleasure of working with John for almost five years. He is an exceptional senior executive and commercial leader, a forward-thinking innovator, and an inspiring people manager. John possesses a unique blend of strategic vision and hands-on execution that sets him apart from other leaders I’ve worked with. Over the years, he has built solid relationships with an expansive and impressive network of industry professionals and influencers.

Alex reported directly to John
“I had the pleasure of working for John during a couple different roles while at Synchrony and GiftNow. John has an uncanny ability to think through problems with a fresh light that isn't obvious to others. He likes to solve hard problems and never takes the easy way out. Probably why he's had such success in the start up world. It's not just start ups though - I've personally watched John navigate massive organizations post exit bringing a welcomed positive attitude and approach to the strategic direction. It's not easy moving a big organization in new directions but John does a great job laying out a strategic plan and collaborating with others to get it done. He's a great person to work for, easily motivating his direct reports and others in an organization towards a single goal. I'd happily with with John again and hope to do so soon!”
VP, Product Marketing
Lisa worked on John’s team
“John was such an amazing partner to work with at GiftNow/Synchrony. He knew the full landscape of the retail industry more than anyone I've ever met, and how to truly bring a tech platform to market that made sense for our retail partners. His approach to building programs for our clients to satisfy their business objectives and grow their sales was never a one size fits all, but he knew how to truly mold a program to meet their needs. His relationship management skills are exceptional, and he truly sees GTM strategy as a sales and marketing partnership, which I found so refreshing. I hope to be able to work with John again in the future, building the next big thing and bringing it to market together to make a true dfifference for our partners.”

John was genuinely interested in how his team could work together with others, including my product management team, to achieve our common goals. His approach to building relationships within the industry and encouraging a teamwork-oriented culture was both inspiring and effective.
John's ability to collaborate closely with the product management team was a key factor in our success. This partnership between the GTM team and product wasn't just beneficial; it was transformative, allowing us to deliver exceptional value to our clients. The mutual respect and seamless communication between our teams facilitated the creation of innovative solutions that truly met our clients' needs, setting us apart in a competitive market.
Beyond the numbers, John's leadership style is pragmatic and focused. He excels at understanding market needs and aligning team efforts to develop strategies that make an impact.
