Taking companies from concept to enterprise scale, globally
With a diverse and international background encompassing manufacturing, insurance, HR technology, and deep tech startup environments, I bring a comprehensive skill set that enables me to swiftly adapt to a wide array of technologies and business models.
This breadth of experience enables my acclimation to new challenges, allowing me to contribute value quickly.
My approach is driven by a deep interest in tackling novel problems and delivering impactful solutions. I am dedicated to understanding your objectives from both business and technological standpoints, with the aim of devising optimal strategies to achieve these goals both efficiently and cost-effectively.
Beyond my direct experience, I offer significant added value through my extensive network. Where specialized knowledge is required, I am well-positioned to tap into my connections to source expertise.
This capability ensures that I am not just a facilitator but a strategic resource capable of bringing comprehensive solutions to the table.
I've worked with startups that came to me with just (as they put it) "four words and a bag of money" to Fortune 250's to global NGO's. No matter the stage of the business I can get things moving in the right direction or pour on the jet fuel for an existing team.
This is the platform I conceived, architected and lead the development of the talent discovery platform. This became one of the best selling products for CareerBuilder at $142 Million ARR.
