Multi-time founder focused on revolutionizing the legacy headwear industry with well designed, high quality, sustainable hats. The way to solve the issues in the fashion industry (no.2 CO2 emitter behind Oil) is organically merging design, quality and technology. As our wardrobe requirements have modernized, we are demanding more of fewer items we own. These items need to be versatile enough to wear to work and then out, seamlessly adapting to our busy schedules. My backgrounds in private equity + 10 years of founding my own companies (retail stores, consumer electronic wearables, AR/CV/ML software development) has led me to this vision: Solving the inefficiencies in Fashion/E-com by thoughtfully weaving in cutting edge technology. Fashion and technology have historically had trouble working together resulting in no comprehensive solution to date. I have a very meticulous roadmap to work from the inside of fashion in order to bring change. This first step is gaining the trust of both brands and consumers by showing them firsthand (through Gild) how my tech stack drastically improves conversion, reduces returns and provides an expansive overall customer UX. Gild is my blueprint. I invite you to follow the journey.
