As an entrepreneurial leader, I've been fortunate to lead both public and private initiatives at the intersection of economic development and technology. Throughout my career, I have served as the go-to for big picture strategy at the earliest stages — pioneering new initiatives, marshaling key partnerships and then building small, powerhouse teams to catalyze those initiatives into existence.
Intl Development: To scale services in rural India, my team developed a biz model to improve healthcare access. That led me to start a clean energy product distribution company. It failed.
Startups: I co-founded a 3D printing startup to revolutionize the future of supply chains. I later led the team responsible for crafting global product strategy at a tech incubator in Silicon Valley.
Public sector: I served on the Government of Estonia’s e-Residency Advisory Group to advance digital entrepreneurship. Most recently, led an economic innovation portfolio for Mayor Tubbs' Office.
