Being one of seven kids, would it be a cliche to say I'm competitive? I'm UT Alumni with a passion for tech, small business, and sales. Despite being an introvert, my interest in tech has propelled me through a variety of industries. Starting with LYFT in 2014, I gained an invaluable amount of insight into what it takes to scale a rideshare company at record-breaking pace, while challenging Uber every step of the way. In particular, I assisted in growing their most valuable resource, the drivers, exponentially.From there, I moved from business development at a small cyber security company to a remote sales role at a SaaS company in the automotive space. The experience I gained at these companies gave me the confidence to co-found my own company in the automotive space. However, despite my passion for cars and the auto industry, my true interest has always been technology, specifically with regard to WiFi. Having spent thousands of hours optimizing/tweaking friends' and family's networks in my personal time, the move to Geartech to work with the best mesh WiFi solution on the market, eero by Amazon, was an opportunity that I couldn't ignore. I've built and trained sales teams and been a top performer, but my real passion is, and always will be, having insightful discussions around innovative technological solutions that have real-world game-changing impacts.
