Let me know if this sounds familiar: you’re a business owner or self-employed professional who wears all the hats. When it comes to the finance hat, your current system is either too complex, too time-consuming, or too expensive—if you have a system at all.That’s where I step in. I’m all about simplifying the financial maze for microbusiness owners and self-employed folks. My mission? To free them up to focus on what really matters: running and growing their business. With over a decade of experience in financial services law and banking, I’ve seen firsthand how microbusinesses and self-employed folks often get overlooked and underserved. That’s why I’m dedicated to helping them thrive. That dedication led me to found Backbone Technologies (Backbone)—a game-changing new platform that helps microbusiness owners and self-employed professionals manage their finances all in one place, right from their smartphone or tablet. Before founding Backbone, I worked as in-house counsel at one of the nation’s largest fintech companies, where I played a key role in growing its home equity product suite from idea, to launch, to triple-digit YoY growth. My knack for simplifying complex financial regulations even earned me the company’s Values Award for “Simplicity.” Before that, I cut my teeth at a large law firm, where I developed an expertise in fair and responsible lending, and as a commercial banker and small business advisor.If you’re a microbusiness owner, a self-employed professional, or a decision-maker at an organization or financial institution that supports them, let’s connect! I’d love to chat.
