As Co-Founder, COO and acting CFO of Graphiq, a semantic technology, big data company, I oversaw operations, finance, HR, facilities, was integral in achieving 40%+ growth and exceeded aggressive content development goals. Additionally, I co-presented, secured, and managed documentation, due diligence and closing of VC funding.Acquired by Amazon in 2017.

As CEO, COO and acting CMO, I oversaw over 10-figures in cumulative, profitable revenue of a sector-leading digital content management company. I closed strategic global deals with Yahoo, DoubleClick, MSN/Bing, Excite and other top Web properties. Additionally, I managed marketing budgets, media placement and affiliate programs of low-mid 9-figures and managed merchant, affiliate, and content producer relationships, and reduced the overall cost of operating these relationships by 30+%.

As Founder and CEO, I launched one of the first and largest digital advertising agencies. We pioneered much of what is now current-day practices, products, and executions in the digital marketing sector - now known as the "Adtech" industry. We developed the concept of quantitative analysis-driven performance in B2B and B2C digital marketing, specializing in large-client media planning and buying and ubiquitous Web placement campaigns. We planned and executed the industry’s first “takeovers” or “roadblocks” on the Web and achieved industry dominance for two clients through strategic media planning and placement, holding the #1 client position with Yahoo! and DoubleClick from 1996-2001. Average client spend ranged from $20-50 million annually.Starting with $100, no outside funding or debt, within three years, we grew the agency to nearly $150 million in annual revenue and 80+ employees with offices in DC, NY, and SF, ultimately reaching over $1B in cumulative revenue.
