Full bio

As a lifelong entrepreneur with extensive technology, entertainment, and digital media experience, I have led business development, financial planning, marketing and sales efforts for multiple companies at various stages of development. 

My core skill set is centered on evaluating corporate strategies while putting systems in place to scale highly effective sales & marketing teams. I've helped companies as an in-house operator, an external consultant and as a long term advisor. 

I'm also on the board of the Harvard Business School Association of Southern California and I'm the chair of the HBS Alumni New Venture Contest in Los Angeles. I welcome every opportunity to connect with fellow entrepreneurs.
