Fundamentally, I focus on people. From team building to strategic partnerships, enabling others to be the best at their jobs is what drives me. Over the past nine years, I’ve cultivated a deep and extensive tech network which I’ve leveraged to help scale and support several frontier-tech startups, developing strong, long-term relationships with government and commercial entities and key industry influencers. Pairing my technical academic background with my professional background in strategy and business development enables me to work cross-functionally and fluently communicate highly technical, advanced scientific information to customers and partners and better understand customer needs for strategy and sales purposes. I’ve dominantly focused on exploring and developing funding channels, strategic partnerships, and commercialization opportunities to support advanced technology development teams and projects. It's my life goal to bring frontiers - from the quantum to the cosmic levels - a little closer to our reach.
