My background is unique as I’ve worked in close to 20 market segments from health clubs to technology and media and I have a strong financial foundation working in investments/hedge funds/venture.

I went to the school of hard knocks but I also gained education with specialized certifications and education in Incubation, Design Thinking, Disruptive Strategy, Venture Creation, Blue Ocean Strategy, JTBD, Consumer Research and more.
