I Love Building Companies
I have 25 years of experience in Health, Fitness and Technology with a deep background in marketing and finance. I love innovation and I work in the business of venture development and entrepreneurship.
I have been a luminous force in our industry, consistently challenging the status quo and pioneering changes that reshape how we do things. I have developed new markets, growing multiple companies from $0 to Millions and won multiple awards as an entrepreneur.
I am gifted at strategy and a wizard in execution. I have a unique ability to bridge left and right brain thinking, giving me a strong creative and analytical mix, aka the "golden brain" = Imagine a visionary Founder who can also execute as a CMO and/or CFO 😊
