About

Equal parts product developer and business builder. I ensure the consumer ultimately wins by building user-centric, scalable solutions to address problems in massive markets. I’ve spent the last two years at Socratic Ventures doing so in higher ed. After starting my career in real estate and consumer lending, I became a principal at a university tech startup accelerator, and worked with local venture capitalists and entrepreneurs. In 2011, I joined BuildASign, a high-growth e-commerce startup, focusing on growing the company through product and corporate development. In 2014, I co-founded Wearables.com and grew it into a leading destination for consumer wearable technology. I joined Socratic Ventures to incubate and launch College Consortium, and provide product and corporate development insights to the fund. Socratic Ventures is bringing disruption to new and established markets in higher ed, using technology as the agent to that disruption.
