about
Working With Me
I started my first company in my early twenties and never really stopped. Over the last decade I’ve built, scaled, sold, and sunsetted ventures in coaching, digital products, operations consulting, and community-led startups.
My work is now a blend of playful experimentation and ruthless strategic clarity. I coach founders and leaders globally, helping them ship ideas faster, make cleaner decisions, and build businesses that match the size of their ambition.
1:1 executive and founder coaching
Strategic intensives for early-stage teams
Ongoing advisory for solopreneurs + founders
Combination of leadership mindset and execution
I work best with curious, values-driven humans who are ready to move quickly and have fun while we do it.
