Director of Market Intelligence

As a seasoned founder, marketing expert, and real estate broker in Colorado, my journey has been anything but conventional. 

My obsessive brain & unorthodox approach has taken me down a beautiful but winding path. I've built companies, failed miserably, successfully exited, strategically advised startups and Fortune 500 companies, co-founded an environmental non-profit, and sat on a Colorado State environmental advisory board.

By day, I apply my strategic marketing acumen to drive growth for Silicon Valley tech companies. Outside office hours, my passion shifts to real estate, where I guide Coloradans in making informed decisions about residential and commercial property ownership.

And while my ventures evolve, my most cherished role remains — being a dad to two incredible kids.
