A little about me

I'm based in the San Francisco Bay Area, but my work is global. I've partnered with teams from São Paulo to Tokyo, London to Beijing, Pittsburgh to Seattle, and many places in between.

I was a founding executive at two acquired companies. Two more I advised got there too. There's nothing quite like the feeling of locking in with a team to create something great.

I've run Product, Growth, Marketing, and PR. The combination makes me better at all of them.

Before my career in tech, I taught high school in Jamaica for a year. I still love that kind of exchange. Whether I'm working with students at Carnegie Mellon and Northwestern or advising people earlier in their careers, every conversation feels reciprocal.

Outside of work, I travel whenever I can.

Seeing startups become acquisitions, new products become businesses, and ambitious ideas become reality teaches you something. So does watching quiet teams turn into the ones the business runs on. Colleagues describe what I bring as hard-won optimism. They're not wrong. Most breakthroughs look uncertain before they look inevitable.
