Summary
Currently Founder & CEO of NumberAI - Raised $12M from DFJ, Costanoa, Gradient/Google. Previously was Entrepreneur in Residence at DFJ. Founder & CEO of Location Labs, acquired in 2014 by Dutch antivirus company AVG Technologies for $220M. Won 2011 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Finalist award. My goal with Location Labs was to develop apps and services to turn a mobile phone into a personal safety device, and to build a truly meritocratic company, where initiative drives success. Most proud of the amazing team and culture we built. By the time I left in 2016, Location Labs had completed its 7 consecutive year of profitability and numbered more than 200 employees worldwide and was delivering $35M of annualized EBITDA. Our "mobile security for humans" services were used by more than 3 million monthly paying subscribers, making it one of the most successful pure mobile subscription services in the world. Prior to Location Labs, I was Vice President at Claridge the private investment fund for the Bronfman Family in my hometown of Montreal, Canada. I started my career at Bain & Co. where I was the highest ranking associate in my class and was promoted to the post-MBA role at the age of 24.
