Experienced CFO, investor, and entrepreneurial leader with a track record of success as a venture investor, business builder, fund-raiser and finance executive. While I continue to invest in venture capital, I developed my coaching practice in 2020 and since then have helped dozens of executives and entrepreneurs upskill, raise capital, find new opportunities, and excel in the new positions. I have done this work across industries, but most of my clients are entrepreneurs in tech/biotech, investment professionals in private equity/venture capital, or in real estate. I started my career as an investment banker at Morgan Stanley and Smith Barney (now Citi) before getting my MBA at Harvard Business School. I spent several years in private equity and venture capital at Warburg Pincus before moving into public equity investing at hedge funds, including my own for several years. Most recently I pivoted back to venture capital with a new firm, 3Spoke Capital, and spent two years as the CFO of a new AI/medtech venture, PreciseDx, for which I raised over $20MM in a Series B. All the while I was active in the recruitment, training, and management of high performance teams. I know how to build great teams, help you find a role within them, and crush the new job once you secure it.
