Achievements
Developing companies from startup to post-IPO has been my life's work. That journey has been rewarding financially and personally. I have led teams on that journey, I've guided founders on that journey, and I've advised Fortune 500 companies on how to create entrepreneurship programs. After 2 IPOs, raising $270M in capital and a few exits, I'm now focused exclusively on helping founders and aspiring "intra-preneurs" be successful.
