    I am a dynamic business leader, investor, and Fractional C-Suite consultant with over 14 years of experience scaling startups from ideation to Series X. As the Founder and CEO of Your CxO Online, I have empowered more than 10,000 startups across industries by providing on-demand C-Suite leadership and strategic mentorship. I specialize in guiding founders through critical growth phases by offering tailored solutions in operations management, revenue growth, and fundraising. Previously, as a Senior Business Leader at Builder.ai, I contributed to the company’s rapid growth and established it as a major player in the AI-driven software development space. My leadership was pivotal in expanding global operations, driving multi-million-dollar revenue growth, and leading large-scale sales and business development initiatives. With a proven track record of delivering measurable results, I have played an instrumental role in driving market expansion, forming strategic partnerships, and optimizing operational frameworks. My experience spans working across North America, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, collaborating with both early-stage ventures and established enterprises. In addition to my entrepreneurial ventures, I have held fractional executive roles at numerous startups, including serving as a Fractional COO and CSO. My expertise in navigating fundraising landscapes has enabled companies to secure investments and strategically scale operations. I have also collaborated closely with investors and venture capitalists, offering insights on market trends and growth opportunities. I am passionate about empowering the startup ecosystem and have mentored founders, participated in accelerator programs, and contributed to industry initiatives. I am now spearheading the launch of the world’s first C-SaaS AI platform, offering on-demand executive leadership to startups in need of agile, results-oriented guidance. When I’m not leading businesses to success, I enjoy engaging with the entrepreneurial community, sharing insights through thought leadership, and exploring innovations in AI and emerging technologies.

    Human Advancement Leader As a serial entrepreneur, executive coach and writer for twenty five years, I have deep experience in a variety of areas that can serve you and your business venture. Having personally experienced and advised others in theirs, your trials and errors can be objectively identified as best practices to avoid making mistakes. In short, keys to success involve the elimination of the causes of failure, not the pursuit of success or its intoxicants. When Pope Julius II asked Michelangelo how he created the Statue of David, Michelangelo replied “I removed everything that was not David.” This inversion and elimination principle is essential and also very hard, without help. I can and will assist you in staying out of the penalty box / sin bin. Let me share my expertise and experience with you through our work together, so that you can benefit from what I have learned, but more importantly, navigate the fears that limit success and give rise to failure. You can benefit from what I have learned, craft it, focus it and apply it in your own way. I will help you learn how to fish for yourself. I look forward to working together. LEADING EDGES Performance tactician Value translator Agile practitioner Durable leader HIGHLIGHT OF TALENTS Proven performance leadership for assembling, motivating and optimizing teams. Highly organized, with instinctive ability to prioritize and work under extreme work pressures, changing conditions and deadlines. Strong interpersonal skills working with all manner of stakeholders, able to consider disparate interests to re-orient and deliver mutual outcomes. Critical thinker, problem analyzer and authentic problem solver using sound decision-making competencies and capacities.
