Start-Up Strategist | Operations Expert | Delivered >$2B in Revenue | Entrepreneurial Hyper-Growth Mindset | Strategic Partnerships | Digital Advertising Pioneer - $Bs in Media Placed | Multi-X Executive

As a CEO, CRO, COO and CFO, and multi-time founder, I have successfully led early-stage, high-growth Web and tech firms consistently delivering hyper-growth profitable revenue. I thrive in dynamic, fast-paced and often ambiguous environments and offer additional expertise in strategic planning, general, operational, and financial management.

As a founder/CXO, my banking and finance background served as the foundation to all my work.

@25, as Sr. Credit Policy Officer/VP at JPMorgan Chase, I designed, wrote and implemented numerous credit products for the Bank, ultimately bearing the credit risk for and overseeing a $50B+ loan portfolio. 

Over my career, I have led the growth of seven companies, including four self-funded start-ups and one venture-backed firm. Notably, two of these companies exceeded $140 million in annual revenue. My individual efforts have delivered over $2 billion in uninterrupted, profitable revenue to these ventures and two exits.

My comfort zone is complex problems, dynamic changes and continuous improvement in an organization. I am energized by competition and the need for continuous cost reduction and performance efficiency. 

My first full startup was a first-mover pioneer in the digital advertising sector, founding and building a digital advertising agency that created many of the methods and practices now broadly employed in digital marketing (SEO, SEM, etc.), targeted media planning and buying, programmatic advertising, data, tracking and reporting. We reached nearly $150M within 3 years; highly profitable, no investors or debt; started the company with $100.

I launched my career in corporate and investment banking, reaching VP at JPMorgan Chase @25. And, to kick off my startup career, I was on the founding team of two intrapreneurial startups in US and international telecommunications where I was the sole IC to a $50M run rate in year one.

I am passionate about complementing founding teams with my experience, ensuring success through effective planning, execution, operations and B/D strategies. I am driven by the connections and communications between individuals - employees and partners. People_Are_Everything!

Throughout my career, I have developed and honed several essential qualities that have not only shaped my professional identity but also contributed to the success of the teams and organizations I’ve worked with. One of the key strengths I bring is my ability to tackle complex challenges by stepping back to gain a deeper, more comprehensive understanding of the situation. I approach problem-solving with a combination of critical and creative thinking, using both inductive and deductive reasoning to craft effective and innovative solutions.

A defining aspect of my work style is my collaborative spirit. I thrive in team environments, where I create cohesion and inspire colleagues to exceed expectations, thereby driving meaningful results and adding significant value to the organization. My strong emotional intelligence — rooted in empathy, self-awareness, and emotional regulation — enables me to seek diverse perspectives and contribute fresh, novel solutions that help propel the business forward.

I am also adept at aligning business strategies with broader organizational goals, leveraging sound judgment and effective decision-making to drive growth and profitability. In every role, I’ve consistently demonstrated an unwavering commitment to long-term success through strategic planning and execution.

My professional journey can be summarized in three words: Perseverance, Resilience, and Curiosity. These values are at the core of my work ethic, driving my continuous growth and enabling me to navigate challenges with determination, adaptability, and an eagerness to learn.

How Does Your Leadership Karma Shape Your Team’s Success?

Have you ever stopped to think about the Karma you create as a leader? The energy you put out into the world often comes right back to you, especially when it comes to your team.

When you lead with integrity, empathy, and transparency, you foster a culture where those values are returned. For example, a leader who listens, values contributions, and provides constructive feedback will inspire loyalty, commitment, and high performance in their team.

But what happens when a leader is inconsistent, dismissive, or manipulative? 
The results aren’t just disengagement, they can be a toxic work culture, trust issues, and poor morale.

Leadership isn’t just about what you get, it’s about what you give. Every decision, every interaction, creates a ripple effect that influences your team’s behavior, collaboration, and success.

So, here’s a question for you: What kind of Karma are you creating as a leader today?

If this resonates with you, follow for more insights on leadership that works.
