Founder

I thrive where the market hasn’t been figured out yet.

I thrive where the market hasn’t been figured out yet.

For twenty-five years, I’ve worked alongside founders and operators — bringing new products to market and finding the people who need them. I’ve led business development, sales, marketing, and education, and helped launch tens of millions of dollars in new product. I’ve sat with founders, investors, and leadership teams through fundraising, acquisitions, turnarounds, and exits.

What still matters most hasn’t changed: picking up the phone, listening closely, asking the question that doesn’t fit yet.

That’s why I started Ponderosa — to work directly with founders at the point where a good product still needs a market.
