Founder I Investor I Advisor I Former CIO and CISO
I have over 20+ years of experience as a CIO, advisor, and investor in the enterprise software space. I leverage my deep operational and technical expertise to help startups scale and succeed in a competitive and dynamic market. As a partner at Ridge Ventures, I focus on early-stage investments in B2B software companies that are disrupting or creating new categories. I also serve as a board member for several portfolio companies, such as Cerby, Lightyear, and Theom. Additionally, I advise leading companies like Zoom, Productiv, and Material Security on their product, go-to-market, and customer success strategies. My mission is to empower and support visionary founders and teams that are building the next generation of enterprise solutions.
