Why work with me?

From the trenches of early-stage growth

I’ve partnered with 100+ startups in full-time, advisory, and fractional roles, across industries and growth stages. This has equipped me with the insight and judgment to quickly identify what drives growth and what doesn’t, helping you avoid common pitfalls and focus on what matters most.

Strategy and execution in equal measure

I provide more than just a plan—I bring the structure, resources, and oversight needed to turn ideas into results. Whether it’s defining a winning direction or ensuring every step of the execution is seamless, I focus on driving meaningful outcomes while ensuring the work gets done right.

It’s always a “hell yes” or “no” for me

I’m selective about the projects I take on because I believe in delivering my absolute best. If we work together, it’s because I see real potential to create impact—and you can count on me to bring total focus, energy, and commitment.
