About

I'm an ex-founder and full-stack engineer with 15+ years of experience across product development, engineering, go-to-market, and team building.

Previously I founded CloserIQ, a tech-enabled recruiting startup that scaled to a global team of 60+, reached profitability, and earned a spot on the Inc 5000 list. Along the way, we helped startups like Oscar, Justworks, Retool, and Trello build world-class GTM teams. Before that, I worked on high-performance applications on Wall Street and earned my CS/Math degree from Penn.

If you’re a first-time or aspiring founder, I can help you navigate the 0 to 1 journey—from product-market fit to hiring your first team. Whether you need a sounding board for tough challenges or someone to brainstorm solutions with, I’m here to help.

Please reach out to see if it's a good fit. Looking forward to the journey ahead!
