Entrepreneur in Residence

Expa

Jan 2023 - Jan 2024 (1 year 1 month)

After Wix & DeviantArt, my wife and I went on grand adventures for a year and a bit. That filled our tanks. The opportunity to join G, Milun, Roberto and Vitor and the broader team at Expa as an EIR after that was an excellent experience. I got to dabble in directions never before afforded to me. In health care tech, AI, B2B CMS, broad social apps, consumer products. I considered venture capital, so I heard over a hundred pitches from entrepreneurs. I nurtured my curiosities, Expa was nothing but supportive. I realized, I'm an entrepreneur. And that's what I want to be. I like early to mid. You'll find me there for the rest of my career. It's where my heart is. Expa helped me figure that out, and I'm deeply grateful to them for that.
