THE FOUNDER’S GROWTH PARTNER

We focus on the big wins that transform your business.

I work alongside CEOs to land major customers, build strategic partnerships, engage influential advisors, and tackle strategic challenges—from growth strategy and positioning to storytelling and branding—that can transform their business.

THE RELATIONSHIP

Advice is easy. Helping is different.

Most founders already have people they can turn to for advice. What’s harder to find is another experienced founder who works directly with them to develop opportunities and make things happen.

HOW I THINK

The world is moving much faster. Are you?

AI helps me research, shape ideas and test approaches faster—so we can spend more time on decisions and conversations that matter.

But judgment, creativity, relationships, trust and a great story matter more than ever.

10× SPEED

What would you do differently if you had to move 10× faster?

HUMAN × AI

People provide context, judgment and feedback. AI scales the work around them.

WHY FOUNDERY

The growth partner I never had.

I’ve had investors, board members, advisors and plenty of smart people around me.

But there were times I wished I had another founder who knew enough about the business to really think with me—and had been through enough to see things I might not.

That’s the idea behind Foundery.
