Do you only work with tech startups?

Not at all. I work across a variety of industries. I spent the first half of my career outside of my career, working in construction, infrastructure, retail, sustainability, oceans and agriculture as a business consultant.

Do you only work with startups or founders?

Not exclusively. While most of my clients are startup founders, I also work with senior leaders, emerging team members, and growing businesses that need strategic support across departments. Through my in-residence offer, I coach multiple people within the same company - from product leads to commercial teams - wherever clarity and momentum are needed.
