Brand Storyteller & Growth Partner

Hello, I'm Demi.

I turn stories into relationships, and relationships into revenue.

Currently exploring roles in customer success, community and partnerships.

Chapter I · The story

Where sales, marketing and customer success meet.

  • Enterprise sales
  • Brand storytelling
  • Customer success
  • Go-to-market
  • Community building
  • Lifecycle campaigns
  • Relationship management
  • Public sector procurement

My career lives at the intersection of sales, marketing and customer success, and I've learned that the best deals start as great conversations.

At Luminance, I closed $3.75M in my first year against a $1.7M quota, selling AI to General Counsel at companies like Koch Industries. At Whale, I've driven over $1M in ARR since May 2025, closing clients like Nestlé, Nespresso, Harvard and the Baltimore Police Department.

Before tech, I led customer success and marketing at Aurate, where I managed Kerry Washington's talent relationship and helped launch our collaboration. I also worked on Burna Boy's album rollout, all the way to the Grammys. Through it all, I've built communities and campaigns that turned customers into advocates. I've worked with clients across North America, EMEA, the UAE and Africa, and I'm known for relationships that keep growing long after the deal closes.

Chapter III · Kind words

Ms. Owodunni consistently demonstrated professionalism, responsiveness, and a genuine commitment to ensuring our organization had the information and support needed to make an informed decision. As someone who regularly works with vendors and technology partners, I can say that this level of customer service is uncommon and deserves recognition.
