    Achievements

    I launched, from the ground up, a physical product called the Perchmount, which has been used by thousands of people and generated over $100K in revenue in it's first year. I co-designed, developed and prototyped the Perchmount from the inception to commercialization. I built and managed relationships with investors, suppliers, manufacturers, engineers, and designers to make it all happen. After only its first year, the Perchmount has become a staple in the CrossFit industry. www.perchmount.com              

    Others: Raised over $1M. Built a relationship with a children's hospital and partnered on a NIH Grant funded by the NFL.
