Enhancing Success in Technology Startups

I'm a technology entrepreneur, programmer and patented inventor with deep startup experience. As a four time founder who thrives in complex, high-velocity environments, I like delivering important products, I like new challenges, I like maximizing business potential and stakeholder returns.

On the hunt:

I'm looking at silicon valley startups and would like to either round out a founding team with a strong idea or join a more established business where I can help drive product or strategy. I'm most interested in technology centric businesses aiming for recurring revenue delivering proprietary products and/or services into a large and growing market. I'm looking for a high potential business model where I can leverage my broad talents and make a significant impact. And more importantly, I look forward to working with interesting people I respect and like!
