CEO @Brave New World

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of being an early team member at two groundbreaking companies that transformed how we use technology global. Leading their meteoric rise from small teams to hundreds of employees in what felt like an instant, I honed my ability to drive innovation and accelerate rapid growth— skills that have become the cornerstone of my professional journey. In 2006, I took a bold step and founded my own innovation house, where I’ve led pioneering projects for industry leaders like Discovery, MTV, Pearson, McGraw-Hill, Target, UFC, Burger King, and more. My passion for cutting-edge technology led me to establish an AI-focused robotics lab in 2014, where I explored the fascinating intersection of human and machine interaction. I believe that fostering an innovative culture is essential for success. By establishing an environment built on trust and excellence, I empower teams to take risks, share ideas, and collaborate freely. This culture not only drives creativity but also cultivates a sense of ownership and accountability, enabling us to achieve remarkable outcomes together. With a proven track record of raising tens of millions for both myself and others, I excel at taking ideas from concept to execution—turning visions into thriving products and companies at lightning speed. My expertise spans product development, executive strategy, digital transformation, and operational excellence. I’m excited to bring this wealth of experience to a dynamic team that values innovation and growth.More...
