Serial entrepreneur with over 25 years of experience building award-winning products and platforms.
Currently, I serve as the Co-Founder and Chief Product & Technology Officer at DRINKS (drinks.com), where I lead strategy and innovation across our suite of products and data science initiatives, including our patented PAIR (Predictive AI Retailing) technology.
Previously, I was the founding CTO of Hydra, the $100mil+ digital ad platform that was acquired by Adknowledge in 2010. I also co-founded and served as CTO of Urbaniacs, an online gaming community acquired by Brandissimo in 2007. Earlier in my career, I was the first lead engineer hired by NeoPets in 2000, where I led the team that scaled the site to over 30 million players within 2 years.
I am a builder at heart, driven by curiosity and a belief in the transformative power of entrepreneurship. I've invested in more than 35 early-stage tech startups and remain deeply engaged in the startup ecosystem by actively mentoring and advising founders as they navigate the challenges of building and scaling innovative products.
