I love building businesses and enjoy mentoring driven entrepreneurs scale their startups with sound practices and real world insights. My experience is in retail, CPG and SaaS/subscription business models. I currently mentor for Seed Spot, Lighthouse Labs and Venture Asheville, and as a result I bring strong network of founders and investors as well as an understanding of the startup ecosystem up and down the Mid-Atlantic region.
