Background
Cliff's career spans the financial and technology industries, beginning in corporate sales and business development on Wall Street and in high tech before moving into entrepreneurship. He went on to co-found Brainheart Growth, a growth advisory firm, and write Don't Sell. Generate Revenue., a book built on the idea that revenue is something an entire organization creates rather than something a sales team extracts.
He holds a BA in Psychology from Dartmouth College and an MBA from DePaul University, along with certificates in Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania and Digital Marketing from Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management.
Current Work
At Recovery.com, Cliff leads growth across a platform that connects more than a million people each month with treatment options. His focus is on scaling the business in a way that scales the mission with it and helping revenue teams reach their full potential—work he describes as being far more about culture and capability than closing.

Interests
Cliff lives in Madison, Wisconsin, with his wife, Shanna, and their three sons. A person in long-term recovery from alcohol use disorder, he counts his family and recovery among his greatest gifts. Much of his life outside of work is dedicated to helping others discover a life in recovery of their own.
Our Promise
How Is Recovery.com Different?
We believe everyone deserves access to accurate, unbiased information about mental health and recovery. That's why we have a comprehensive set of treatment providers and don't charge for inclusion. Any center that meets our criteria can list for free. We do not and have never accepted fees for referring someone to a particular center. Providers who advertise with us must be verified by our Research Team and we clearly mark their status as advertisers.
Our goal is to help you choose the best path for your recovery. That begins with information you can trust.
