Founder & CEO
Huntington Beach, California, United States
Built companies from zero to NASDAQ IPO. Scaled production capacity 2300%. Managed P&L to $200M across Fortune 500 divisions, venture-backed biotech, PE-backed acquisitions, and public company operations. 20+ years transforming operations in medical devices, biotech, pharmaceuticals, consumer products, and life sciences.
WHAT I DO:
I build, fix, and scale businesses. Recruited repeatedly as the executive who creates high-performing organizations from scratch. At Tivic Health, I joined as employee #5, built FDA-regulated operations from zero, took the company public on NASDAQ in 9 months, and led through acquisition exit. At Mars Inc., I transformed Wisdom Panel from $17M to $50M in 24 months while managing a $200M P&L and 200 employees globally. At Medelita, I joined as employee #8 and scaled from <$1M to $30M+ in 3 years, positioning for PE acquisition.
