How We Work Together
A proven three-step approach to diagnose challenges, design solutions, and deliver measurable results.
Discover
We start with a deep dive into your business, challenges, and goals. I review your metrics, talk to your team, and identify the highest-impact opportunities.
Diagnose
I build a strategic roadmap tailored to your stage, market, and resources. You'll get clarity on what to build, how to position it, and what metrics matter most.
Accelerate
Together, we execute. Whether it's building your financial model, launching experiments, or refining your pitch, I work alongside your team to deliver results fast.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most engagements start with a discovery call to understand your goals and challenges. From there, we scope a project (typically 2–4 weeks for sprints, or ongoing advisory for fractional leadership). Deliverables vary by service—pitch decks, financial models, product roadmaps, growth experiments—but all include clear documentation and knowledge transfer.
I offer project-based pricing for defined deliverables (e.g., a financial model or pitch deck) and monthly retainers for ongoing advisory work. Pricing depends on scope, timeline, and complexity. After our initial call, I'll send a proposal with transparent pricing and milestones.
I work primarily with pre-seed through Series B startups, though I've supported companies at all stages. If you're building a product, raising capital, or scaling growth, we're likely a good fit. The sweet spot is founders who need senior strategic guidance but aren't ready for a full-time executive.
I'm open to both cash and cash+equity compensation, especially for early-stage startups where cash is tight. For ongoing advisory roles, a small equity stake (typically 0.25%–1% depending on stage and scope) plus a reduced monthly retainer can work well. We'll discuss what makes sense for your situation.
After our initial discovery call, I can usually kick off within a week. For urgent projects (fundraising deadlines, product launches), I can often accommodate faster timelines. Book a call and we'll figure out the best path forward.
I combine hands-on product and growth experience with deep financial and investment expertise. I've been in the trenches as a product leader managing P&L, built financial models for real fundraises, and executed on Wall Street. You get strategy and execution in one partner, not just a deck and a handshake.
Senior Product & Strategy Partner
I'm a fractional startup strategist based in San Francisco, California, helping startups from pre-seed through Series B build investor-ready strategies and scale efficiently. With experience leading $50 million+ products and gaming portfolios, executing over $1.6 billion in financings, and building AI-powered products, I bring the strategic rigor and execution excellence that high-growth companies demand.
Product & Growth Leadership
At Kabam, I served as Product & Team Lead with full P&L responsibility for a $50 million product (multiplayer online game). I managed cross-functional teams of designers, engineers, analysts, and marketers to ship live operations features, optimize monetization, and drive user engagement. My approach combines data-driven decision-making with user-centric design to build products that scale.
I've led product development for AI, VR, and blockchain startups, designing growth strategies, building experimentation frameworks, and iterating on features based on user feedback. Whether it's defining roadmaps, running sprints, or optimizing conversion funnels, I bring the leadership and execution skills to get products to market fast.
Finance, Modeling & Investor Readiness
I've built financial models and pitch decks for companies like VRChat and multiple AI and blockchain startups, helping them articulate their vision, model their growth, and secure funding. My background includes leading a portfolio of 40 products at RockYou, where I performed M&A analysis and evaluated acquisition opportunities, and executing over $1.6 billion in municipal financings as an investment banking analyst on Wall Street.
I understand what investors look for—compelling narratives, rigorous financial projections, and clear paths to profitability. I build 3-statement models, cap tables, and valuation frameworks that stand up to due diligence and help you tell your story with confidence.
Strategic Background & Credentials
I hold an MBA from Columbia Business School, where I developed expertise in strategy, finance, and entrepreneurship. My career spans tech product management, investment banking, and startup advisory, giving me a unique perspective on how to build businesses that scale, raise capital, and deliver returns.
I'm passionate about helping founders navigate the challenges of early-stage growth—from validating product-market fit to closing their first institutional round. If you're building something ambitious and need a strategic partner who can roll up their sleeves and deliver, let's talk.
