Investing in the next generation of builders.

I believe the best operators don’t just build companies – they help build people. I spend time mentoring founders, speaking with emerging leaders, and contributing to conversations that move the industry forward.

Speaking and teaching

I speak at conferences, universities, and industry forums about what it really takes to build at scale – across product, leadership, AI, and consumer behavior.
One-on-one guidance

I take on a limited number of conversations each year with founders and operators building something real and moving with intention.
The next generation

The future belongs to people who know how to combine execution, judgment, and imagination. I care deeply about helping more of them get there.
