I'm a technologist who left a decade of corporate engineering to found my first company, then my second. Along the way I've learned what actually works in the first eighteen months — and what doesn't. I now spend part of my time advising founders one-on-one.
Turning a raw idea into something a small group of real users will actually try — and what to cut to get there faster.
Moving from a stable corporate career into founding, including how I used an MBA program as the transition point.
Building teams, raising your voice in rooms that weren't built for you, and hiring for potential over pedigree.
I take a limited number of 1:1 advisory calls each month with early-stage founders — no pitch decks required, just bring your actual questions.
