I am a reformed corporate executive with experience at Fortune 1000 firms in New York and San Francisco, where I managed over $15 billion in complex financial and partnership transactions. For the past fifteen years, I have focused on supporting entrepreneurship—advising corporations building startup ecosystems, coaching startups at Alchemist Accelerator/AlchemistX, and as an angel investor and venture partner at Waterman Ventures. In 2024, I founded 1821, an organization dedicated to building a global community of Black and Brown founders across various industries and generations. Our mission is to champion individual empowerment, innovation, and inclusivity. Outside of "work," I am a military historian (by education), study Italian (learning to speak), and have been involved in numerous non-profit boards. Current roles include serving on the Episcopal Impact Fund, the board of governors of the Inman Page Council, the steering committee of the CFO Leadership Council, and the membership committee of the Angel Capital Association. Past roles include board positions on the San Francisco Housing Development Board, the Brown University Corporation, and the BrownEP Board.
Listed skills include Start Ups, Strategic Partnerships, Entrepreneurship, Business Development, and 31 others.
