Find a Entrepreneurship mentor

Hi, I'm Shawn, one of the co-founders of Monocoque. Monocoque is a design consultancy that has had the privilege of working with brands from all over the world, the likes of Accenture, WPP, Grand Hyatt and Abbott.

In today's fast-paced, competitive and service-driven landscape, more businesses are employing different facets of design to help them stay ahead. Empathy is at the core of design. By asking questions, understanding the context and focusing on the value we bring to users, we can push design to the forefront of businesses.

I'm a founder, serial entrepreneur, board member, and investor who built a business from day 1 with an initial team of 3 to managing a 300 person workforce.
I went through Ycombinator (batch of W15) and raised $20M+ from VCs and angel investors. Love to help, even with just advice. I helped and mentored numerous individuals and startups to this day.

My areas of expertise are:
- Bootstrapping
- Growth/marketing
- Fundraising
- Leadership
- Business Strategy
- Product-market fit
