About me

4x CMO/Head of Growth. Ex-PayPal. Angel investor. I've lived every inflection point from pre-seed to Series B β€” raised the capital and helped deploy it. The one thing I've learned: founders don't have a growth problem. They have a sequencing problem. They're making the right bets in the wrong order β€” and nobody's telling them. I embed with post-PMF founders as an operating partner through SLS Labs. Bottleneck triage. Growth sequencing. 90 day ride-or-die sprint.
