Current Executive Director of Entrepreneurship and Innovation for YPO. I spent 20 years building the Entrepreneurs' Organization globally helping launch 90 chapters, setting up the EO Accelerator program and the Global Student Entrepreneur Awards. I have been an entrepreneur and helped co-found the Venture Development Canucks a global venture development and capital company with diverse investments in food, tech, and media. I have held roles in business development, and operations managing global teams. I am a big fan of Thomas Edison and have volunteered to support the Edison non profit.
