About Todd Budin

I build things and solve problems by finding the right solution. This starts with understanding the pain point, which means talking to customers, users, payers, consumers. You can't solve the problem without truly putting yourself in the shoes of these stakeholders. Finding a solution match is even more fun. It could be something off the shelf, a product to build, a company to partner with or an acquisition. The comparative analysis should be thorough, but it can't take forever. Confirming a solution match also needs to be fast, which requires getting creative. I find this all very fun, fascinating and fulfilling. Oh, and I lead teams to do the same.
