Twenty years building at the intersection of operations, technology, and food systems — from the boardrooms of the world's largest natural food distributor to the founding team of the connected kitchen.
I've been a CEO, COO, CIO, a founding team member, a Deloitte strategist, and a venture builder. Today, I run Lasso Ventures to bring that same operator's mindset to companies navigating AI — because the gap between “AI strategy” and “AI that actually works” is where most businesses stall.
I don't advise from the sidelines. I embed, I build, and I stay until it works.
