I'm the Founder & CEO of EverTrue, a leading donor engagement platform that serves over 2,000 non-profit fundraising organizations, including over 75% of the leading colleges and universities in the United States. I founded the company after serving as a volunteer for my alma mater, Brown University.
I've been fortunate to back several great entrepreneurs who've built category-defining businesses, including Bonobos, Drizly, Own Up, Chubbies and BizzyCar. I have also invested in several early stage venture funds including Background Capital, Listen Ventures and Vinyl.
I have benefited greatly from strong mentorship throughout my career. I'm committed to paying it forward by way of formal and informal advisory and mentorship via entrepreneurship programs at Harvard Business School, Brown University, and TechStars.
From the initial "napkin sketch" stage through building a category-leading venture-backed company with over 200 employees, I have lived the ups and downs of entrepreneurship. The high highs. The low lows. Whether you're working to release your first MVP or seeking to scale up as a leader, I commit to approach your challenges with empathy and thoughtfulness.
I take a Socratic approach to to help identify gaps and opportunities, surface blind spots and confront the highest priority issues that are holding you back. Together, we will establish action plans with clear deliverables, ranging from executive hiring, customer engagement and Go To Market adjustments.
I've not only been in your shoes, I am still in your shoes as an active Chief Executive. I balance balance strategic perspective with hands-on tactical advice. I know how important mentorship is to creating clarity and focus and my approach reflects this. Together we’ll create and refine your plan for success. I didn’t get here alone. And neither will you.
A window into my personal and professional background.
