A record of my journey as an entrepreneur
Elon Musk once likened the process of launching a company to "chewing glass and staring into the abyss," a sentiment I can certainly empathize with. Below, you'll find a list of the companies I've started, advised, or invested in.
Like any entrepreneurial endeavor, this journey has had its share of highs and lows. Throughout it all, my incredible family has stood by me, and I humbly acknowledge that none of these achievements would have been possible without their unwavering support.

About me
I have over 20 years of experience as an entrepreneur, having founded four successful companies across diverse industries, with one of them being acquired by a strategic party. My unique background allows me to approach problems with a cross-pollination of ideas, leading to the discovery of unique opportunities. My track record includes building exceptional teams, fostering innovation and growth, and forming valuable business alliances.
When not working, I enjoy playing craps and blackjack, going all-out with Halloween and Christmas decorations, skiing, playing street hockey, and coaching lacrosse. I also enjoy audiobooks and podcasts on a range of subjects such as cryptocurrency, psychology, business, health and nutrition, and investing.
For more than a decade, I devoted my free time to mentoring families through the college recruiting process and coaching lacrosse. During my coaching career, I had the honor of leading multiple championship teams and assisting hundreds of athletes with recruiting.
Additionally, I serve on the Nationwide Children's Hospital's Ambassador Council, committed to promoting innovation, funding, and collaboration in the field of autism.
Above all, I am married to an amazing woman who is also my best friend, and we have four children who keep us on our toes!
