About

I love figuring out what makes a product stand out, and then conveying that to people at scale. Have sold student housing to parents when I was a student myself, video concepts + production to corporate giants while still in college, $XM commercial real estate to investors, and SaaS to CXOs/founders. Always up for a chat about growing a business.
