FinTech in San Francisco
Hi there.
Currently I'm with Blockchain Capital as the Entrepreneur in Residence. Previously, I contributed as the Head of Financial Institutions and Dir. Business Development roles at Xapo- a bitcoin Bank.
I enjoy driving value toward the access of financial services to those without, and in creating new markets within FinTech.
Prior to Xapo, I founded and ran Selfless -- A crowd-funding social enterprise platform that sold quality apparel and used by the 100 largest NGO's to raise capital. As CEO I was responsible for customer acquisition, business development, and financing while leading our team of a dozen.
Athletics shaped me, I was a captain on my high school & University football teams leading us to a California league championship and two consecutive Northeast Div. 1aa championships from the quarterback position.
I'm in love with San Francisco, she is gorgeous! I’m grateful to be near my family, a strong tech culture, nature, and amazing friends. I add more fun by playing (rarely watching) sports, skydiving, carpentry, and time reading.
