Arya Wells

New York · Open to GTM strategy and operations roles

I launch products into new markets and build the systems that sell them.

I was the founding go-to-market hire at Marloo and operated GTM at MotherDuck. Before that, I turned a New York rental business into a rental e-commerce platform. In Australia, I worked as a software engineer, a consultant and in structured finance.
