Where I'm heading

Current business focus

Tech founder / junior CTO coaching program

"One thing that I'll never forget is that in startup accelerators, the CEO and pitch deck is the main focus, the CTO is left to "figure things out". I tried to get more support, but the mold was set, that sucked. I promised myself I'd help change that, and this is my attempt to be the coach I wish I had."

    • -help you get the right mindset you need to lead with excitement not anxiety.
    • -provide the mechanics of the day to day

    Basically I give you everything you need to kill imposter syndrome, stop fuleing analysis paralysis and BE THE CTO your venture needs. The world needs what you have to offer. Don't let the unknown scare you or stop you. We're in this together, let's do this together!
