I am motivated to directly impact positive change in others. Everyday, I strive to be my best self by trying to going beyond what is asked of me and to never stop learning.
Throughout childhood, I have always been invigorated by the David vs Goliath matchup mostly through athletics competing in any sport imaginable including collegiate rugby and high school football, basketball & baseball. However, my competitiveness and drive for success has led me down a winning path of my true passion: (disruptive) technology.
Studying in epicenter of Silicon Valley at Santa Clara Univ. opened new doors to future opportunity. I wake up everyday thinking about new, cutting-edge change and a challenge to make it a reality. I have worked at multiple vc backed start ups driving new revenue, customer adoption and product development. Today at Egnyte, I am revolutionizing the way businesses collaborate and secure their data. Previously, I worked to disrupt the publishing industry specifically how consumers engaged with mobile content at Genwi.
As my entrepreneurial development evolves, I will continue to push myself beyond current role and responsibilities pulling from all resources around me as well as making my teammates better. My career goal is to be a social entrepreneur leveraging technology to better the world's youth education and improve the actual opportunity to learn. Fulfillment from past volunteer teaching trips to Tanzania, East LA & New Orleans and mentorship of my 11 year old friend, Alex, through the Big Brother Big Sister program foster this ambition.
I would love to connect to discuss my career journey or simply learn something new.
