Gnostic VenturesPrinciple
Jan. 2007Gnostic Ventures is my independent platform for incubating new ventures, advising startups, and supporting investors. Through Gnostic, I’ve launched and scaled multiple companies—including two that reached the Inc. 500 and achieved successful exits—while also making select early-stage investments. I’ve taken on interim executive roles, led strategic projects, and conducted due diligence for venture firms. Whether building from scratch or unlocking hidden value in existing businesses, Gnostic Ventures has been a vehicle for turning bold ideas into real outcomes.
Founder & CTO
Perimeter eSecurity (Exited to BAE Systems)Founder & CTO
Jan. 1997 - Dec. 2007As Founder, CTO, and early CEO of Perimeter eSecurity, I built one of the first and most successful managed security services providers, growing it from concept to an Inc. 500 company with over 400 employees. I created the initial product suite, secured early and enterprise customers, raised funding, and recruited a world-class team. As CTO, I led product innovation and built a cloud-delivered security service platform years ahead of its time. I drove technical and product integration for 14 strategic acquisitions and helped establish the company’s position as a market leader. I also collaborated closely with sales and marketing to shape messaging, build channel programs, and drive revenue growth, earning multiple awards for sales performance. I’m a named inventor on patents related to security and risk profiling, and as a board member, I helped guide corporate strategy, financial planning, and M&A.
