Experience

Founder, CEO, and systems thinker who builds organizations from the inside out - shaping structure, culture, and strategy with equal intention. I take what feels complex in early-stage growth and turn it into systems people can trust and teams can rally behind.

Major Achievements

Built an early-era Internet services company from the ground up, leading a cross-functional team and creating the technical and operational systems that kept us growing in a rapidly shifting market. We reached steady recurring revenue and ultimately a successful acquisition by focusing on scalable structures, steady leadership, and meeting real customer needs during a pivotal moment in broadband.
