Most recently, I bootstrapped a mobile matchmaking app featured at Techcrunch Disrupt, TrendHunter, Yahoo, and HackerNoon. Previously, I created a luxury lifestyle brand targeting transpacific affluentials which developed brand activation partnerships with Toyota, Chase Bank, Lexus, LVMH Hennessy, City of Hope and HiteJinro. Before that, I led the turnaround of a China-based textile manufacturer in the apparel, promotional, sports, and uniform markets and sold it at an above-average multiple. Prior, I launched a Softbank-backed streaming video-enabled “Forbes Top 200 B2B” digital marketplace for the film and television industry.
I started out as a private banker and strategy consultant. I’m probably best known as the founder of APEX, a community service and professional development association of millennial professionals that just celebrated our 25th anniversary.
