Serial tech entrepreneur, business operator, and strategic advisor with deep experience starting and growing consumer-digital businesses. 

As a growth and product-driven startup founder, I have a proven track record of building and growing innovative products used by millions. I have achieved successful exits while overseeing multiple C-Level executive roles for publicly traded, growth stage, and venture-backed startups. I have a bias for action and a passion for solving big problems. Proven ability to innovate and deliver rapid revenue and user growth. 

At the intersection of my passion for pets and online dating expertise, I co-founded AllPaws. This innovative, online dating-style pet adoption platform quickly gained millions of users and was acquired by the pet industry leader, PetSmart. 

Before that, as co-founder I helped build and lead publicly traded SNAP Interactive from inception to rank as the 36th fastest growing technology company in North America with 4,400% revenue growth over 5 years, $20 million+ in annual revenue, and over 100 million users of our online dating apps and social products. 

Today, I advise businesses and startups on optimizing their digital and product growth strategies. Additionally, I coach entrepreneurs and business leaders on building high-income personal brands, and advise top influencers, models, and creators on growing and monetizing their audiences.

I continue to work on new projects, explore new opportunities, and advise. 

Been featured in ABC News, Bloomberg, Good Morning America, TechCrunch, Fox 5 News,  Huffington Post, Mashable, Forbes, Fast Company, Business Insider, and many other top tier publications.

Back to when Syndicate 11 first began.

We've come so far. And still have so much further to go.

2x Exited Founder & Growth Advisor • Built AllPaws (Acquired by PetSmart) • Co-Founded SNAP Interactive (100m users & $100m revenue)

Syndicate11 | Top Creator Network for High-End Brand Experiences & Activations | 600+ Creators • 600M+ Reach | Seen in: TEDx, NY Post, Rolling Stone, People, New Beauty | NYC

When the room is right, everything compounds.

Syndicate 11 kicked off with a private menu launch at Short Stories in partnership with Limantour, ranked among the World’s 50 Best Bars, bringing together top creators, models, and artists for an intimate dinner.

The evening was fully reserved for members and partners. Limantour crafted bespoke cocktails created specifically for the night, alongside a guided tequila tasting in partnership with Cierto Tequila woven throughout the experience. Family-style dishes rolled out course by course, designed for conversation and shared energy around the table.

Wax-sealed branded menus. Custom cocktails. Hand-filled glass bottles inspired by Limantour’s world-famous recipes in gift bags tied into the Mexican theme. Elevated branding that felt intentional rather than loud. 

High intention. High trust. Carefully curated rooms where real connection happen.

Syndicate11 is now a 600+ creator network representing 600M+ in combined reach, built around unique monetization opportunities and one-of-a-kind experiences where top talent grows, owns, and monetizes their audience.

If you are a brand looking to partner on a curated, invite-only experience send me a message.

Big thank you to Darrell Lerner for bringing us all together
