Ugh. I'm here to help. I have CEO and CTO experience and judgement in startups and will work closely with you to get organized, formulate a plan and execute successfully. I have walked in your shoes and know the business and emotional struggles. I have raised venture capital and took one of my companies public. I guarantee my work or you don't have to pay. We'll do what needs to be done to be successful: establish key partnerships to bring in new revenue streams, prepare yourself for funding, locate funding partners and close on a round of investment, add discipline to the sales process and start meeting sales goals. I've earned my experience by founding companies, recruiting talent, raising capital, building products and exiting through IPO or sale. I'll help you manage any area of your business or transform it. I'm proven by my experience and will help you with everything from Agile delivery and technology issues to the company itself. I can advise you or you can put me in a problem location and we'll get it resolved. As a freelancer, I can work as an individual contributor and not only will I accomplish the mission, you'll get my good judgement, communication, positive attitude and leadership as a bonus.

I will meet you where you are at and work out a way for you to afford my skills. bests, Pat Member of Upwork's elite "Expert-Vetted" top 1% team. ------------- Summary I am an experienced leader and innovator with a strong background in business revitalization, technology, and strategic growth.
