Summary
As the Founder and CEO of The Leaves Legacy Project, I lead a pioneering public benefit corporation focused on empowering individuals to capture, share, and preserve their life stories using cutting-edge AI technologies. With over three years in this role, our team innovates in speech-to-text, interactive life mapping, and on-demand video generation, making personal storytelling both accessible and impactful. Building on a career spanning over two decades as a serial entrepreneur, I have successfully started, scaled, and sold multiple technology businesses across digital content, IP licensing, and online education. At The Leaves Legacy Project, I am driven by a mission to create meaningful tools that celebrate personal and professional journeys while leaving an enduring impact on families, communities, and beyond.
