CEO @PayStand. General Partner @Sharkbait Labs. CoFounder. Engineer. Surfer. Hacker. Globe Trotter. Blockchain Advocate. Fledgling Investor. Bluewater Sailor. MBA Kid. Enjoyer of Life. Doer of Good. Where'd the above mouthful come from? I "grew up" in a highly successful (and exited) product focused engineering (nanotech) company. I learned to lead in a heavily M&A based global public corporation. And I found out what matters most in the world, by selling it all to sail around the world on a 40ft boat, spend months exploring the most far reaches of the globe. So what's left? Keep doing what you love: Take a great idea on a napkin. Build an amazing team. Talk to your customers. Create an innovative product. Stay agile. Pivot as the market shifts. Quietly grow the business. Wow your customers. Create value for your stakeholders. Transform an industry. Make the world a better place. Surprise everyone. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
