About

17 years in startups. Built products used by millions. Been let go twice. The second time was the week before Christmas, two days after completing a 48-hour sprint for the board. That one changed everything. I wrote Enter Startup — the book for startup employees. Not the founders. Not the investors. The people in the trenches building the thing. Backed by 100+ research citations and over a decade of pattern recognition. It's the 258 page system for getting hired, shipping fast, and thriving when everything's on fire. By day, I help investors and companies use technology for good at Novata — where sustainability, AI, and smart data meet private markets. enterstartup.io
