About

I started my job with a start up in NY doing a roll up of the town car industry in the Tri-state region. That's when I fell in love with founders' energy + drive; and decided to dedicate my professional life to furthering their vision in the best way I knew how. Over the years, I have worked with founders across sectors ranging from healthtech, crypto, AI, deeptech, logistics SaaS and renewable energy. I love fundraising, growing companies, creating new markets for product and helping define and execute on strategies. If you are a founder building something amazing and need someone who can wear several hats or just one very effectively, pls feel free to reach out.
