Years of executive experience. Co-Founder, Chief Strategy Officer, CMO, cheerleader
It all started when I co-founded Bomgar (now BeyondTrust) in 2003 before my prefontal cortex was fully developed. I foolishly built our first pitch deck in Flash but we still raised a million dollars. Then as Bomgar's Chief Strategy Officer, I helped position our products and company to sell enterprise clients raise another $19M and grow the company to $50M in revenue. Then I pitched the company to a successful exit in 2014. BeyondTrust now employs 1,500 people and has become a legend - or at least a unicorn: it's valued at over a billion.
Since then, I've helped entrepreneurs in technology, nonprofit, politics, and even a startup city craft amazing positioning used to raise over $150M. Most of the time, I was working in both a strategic and operational role, building product positioning and executing go to market strategy while I was helping raise money.

The legend is out there.
Just got to keep looking
When I'm not working with founders, I'm often a hundred miles from nowhere in the British Columbia backcountry on a Search and Rescue call-out, jet boating up a remote river, hiking a new ridgeline, running a trail, or on one of three types of skis. Legend has it that sasquatch live in these mountains and at this rate, I'm sure to spot one.
