My story
My journey into startups began with a consulting gig for an e-commerce site, followed by another with a music charity platform, then as a team member for a natural food CPG company. Since then I have advised 100+ companies in tech, digital media, ed tech, fin tech, fitness, natural products, food and beverages, beauty, health and wellness, cannabis and other plant medicines,
I’ve been a writer, producer and director in television news, documentaries, and infomercials.
I have lived and worked in Asia, South America and Europe, and today I am based in Austin and Los Angeles.
