As a Director at both RightHill Ventures and Slater Technology Fund, I apply my 30+ years of experience in building and growing technology companies across various domains and industries. I support early-stage entrepreneurs with strategic advice, mentorship, and funding, and help them scale their businesses and achieve their vision.My passion for technology and innovation stems from my diverse background in computer science, energy, sales, marketing, and analytics. I have been a founder or early employee of nine technology companies, four of which have gone public or been acquired. I have also served as an industry analyst at Forrester Research, where I advised Fortune 500 companies on sales and marketing software and customer experience. I grew up outside the US and have a great appreciation for travel, world culture and food. I'm a sailor, biker, maker, parent to three adult children, and startup grandparent.
