About

I provide hands-on support for founders, investors, and organizations to land first customers, craft strategic plans, build deep ecosystem knowledge, generate momentum, and build relationships that make connections count — turning strategy into success and connections into customers.

Over the past decade, I've built a reputation for turning cold leads into collaborators, skeptics into partners, and ambitious ideas into movements. Whether I'm helping launch a startup, scaling an initiative, hosting an international summit or helping clients acquire their first customers and leverage their feedback to product and community growth, I specialize in making meaningful connections—and turning them into real outcomes.

I don't just build strategies. I build trust—and I bring people with me.

NoContext™

My career path has never been linear—and that's intentional. Every time I hit a major decision point, I ask myself four questions:

  • Will I learn something new?
  • Does it sound impossible?
  • Does it scare me?
  • Does it feel like an adventure?

If all four answers are yes, I say yes. That's led me to some unexpected, unexplainable, and unforgettable places. NoContext™ is my way of staying in motion—without needing everything to fit neatly into a narrative.
