Achievements
I launched the Washington DC branch of Urban Escapes, an adventure travel company for young professionals. Successfully sold the business to LivingSocial and hired on to create and scale their in-house events team. Within LivingSocial I launched the Festivals team responsible for over $4MM in revenue during first year of operations. Upon leaving LivingSocial in 2013 I spent 2 years developing strategic partnerships and building a team at Epsilon, a large ad-tech player and data company. I am currently on the investment team at ZX Ventures, responsible for new category investments & our technology portfolio.
