Skills
Summary
I've built my career at the intersection of business and emerging technologies, staying agile as transformative waves like the internet, cloud computing, mobile, Web3, and now AI, have revolutionized industries. Presently, I advise CEOs and leadership teams in growth companies, focusing on the paradigm-shifting business opportunities brought about by generative AI. Generative AI is not merely an incremental advance; it opens new pathways for revenue growth, margin improvement, and competitive differentiation. My experience across diverse technology cycles positions me to help companies not just adapt but excel in this rapidly evolving landscape. Over the years, my roles have varied significantly—founder, CEO, general manager, strategy consultant, and research analyst, to name a few. This diverse portfolio has equipped me with a toolkit that is particularly effective in helping venture- and PE-backed companies grow and evolve. My geographic reach extends well beyond North America; I've also led teams across Asia, Europe, and Australia. This international exposure has given me a nuanced understanding of global market dynamics, which I bring into each new opportunity. When it comes to work, my approach is pragmatic and results-driven. I believe in collaboration and am not hesitant to dive into execution to ensure success. I bring a multi-disciplinary perspective to problem-solving, whether that involves crafting a comprehensive strategy or tackling operational challenges head-on.
