Operating Exec
at Silver Lake
Former CPO and GM of startups and mid-sized companies including
Upwork, 33Across, Financial Engines, Realtor.com,
as well as Operating Executive at Silver Lake, a leading tech private equity firm.
I’ve gone through multiple adventures of creating new product categories,
finding product-market fit, (re)building the organization, and scaling
from pre-revenue to eight+ figures. Lately, I’ve been hands-on exploring
AI’s potential for new products and new ways of working.
I enjoy serving as a thought partner to founders navigating growth and
operating model challenges. In my most recent role at Silver Lake, I
“roll up my sleeves” and work directly with management teams on their
most important problem.
