FOUNDER. OPERATOR. INVESTOR.
Ideas are easy.
Building
companies
is hard.
The hard part is getting product, market, people and capital working together before time and money run out.
I bring hands-on founder and investor experience to the 0→1 stage.

Does the product solve a real customer problem?
BUSINESS MODEL
Can the business make money and support growth?
MARKET
