    Achievements

    Coming out of grad school, I got a chance to co-found Bonobos and serve as our CEO for over a decade. It was a long and winding road as one of the DTC pioneers. Ten years in, we were acquired by Walmart for $310 million. A crazy ride, from selling pants out of a closet to working at the Fortune 1.
