Building and helping others build is my passion. I bootstrapped two high-growth tech companies to multi-million dollar exits. As a blockchain evangelist and partner at a blockchain and real estate fund, I educate the community with articles and events, speak at conferences globally and empower rising entrepreneurs to build solutions for tomorrow's challenges. I’ve served as an advisor and angel investor in over 30 different companies, including Hooked, Wanderu, Stackshare, Talla, Blockfolio, Crayon, Cointopia, Paintzen and Picks.co. I have personally invested in ICOs by Civic, Ethos, GO, Salt, and many others.

If you're looking for advice in one of these 2 areas, I can give you clear, concrete direction. 1. You've worked at a big tech company and are looking to start your own company or join an early startup as a PM. I left Microsoft about 2 years ago and have been running my bootstrapped AI Health company. If you're someone who is looking into transitioning from a big tech employee to startup PM or want to start your own bootstrapped company or are vacillating between bootstrapping and funding, and come from a tech background, boy do I have learnings to share with you! There are some massive strategy shifts and who-to-listen-to changes I had to make, which I believe would cut your heartache in half. 2. You're struggling to get promotions at a big tech company. In my previous life, I was a PM at Microsoft having worked on Visual Studio for 4 years and Cortana for 4 years. If you're a tech person looking for help in figuring out promotions and/or dealing with your manager/PM/dev/design team, I believe I have good insights for you. How? I was promoted every year for 4 years in a row and it wasn't because I worked 100 hour weeks. There is a set of unsaid criteria you need to meet that exists within any big tech company because of the way they are structured, and having leaned into it the first 4 years, then leaned away from it in the last 4 years (I was promoted once when I leaned away), I have some good insights into what to do to position you well.
