Education

Born and raised in Silicon Valley, I'm a rare breed with direct experience in industry, government, venture capital and education. I've been on executive teams of three separate companies that started with zero revenues, raised rounds from leading VCs, went public and sold for over $1B. My passion is to connect international companies, governments and economic development agencies with the vast resources available throughout Silicon Valley. Also to help build entrepreneurial ecosystems. I've developed a set of coursework and teach the methodology to organizations worldwide. Specialties: International connections. CEO and general management. marketing and sales management. Busines
