What it's like to work with me?

I believe that the only way to overcome a challenge is to do the hard work of getting it wrong, sometimes a lot, before you get it right.

I’m the kind of person you want to be on that journey with because I love bringing order to chaos, and because I’ve likely been there before with my own business and with my mentees and portfolio founders. Working with me means getting your hands dirty, testing hypotheses, adjusting our assumptions, and trying again. It means celebrating all the victories, big and small, and learning as much as we can from all the disappointments that are an inevitable part of your journey.

I promise radical candor, transparency, and accountability, even when that means saying “I don’t know” or “I made a mistake.” And I expect the same from my clients, employees, investors, customers, partners, and friends.

Who I am a great fit for?

I think I can best help if you are:

  1. Raising capital or considering raising capital
  2. Struggling to create a KPI structure and define what winning looks like
  3. Generating and testing new ideas for products, features, services, or marketing campaigns
