United States - Miami Beach, Florida

I love to build things. And that spirit has infused my professional career for over 25 years. During that time, I have been creating, investing-in and growing businesses in the Blockchain and Internet industries.

In 2017, I launched Blockchange Ventures, a venture capital firm that focuses on investing in early stage blockchain technology companies and protocols. Our mandate is to find and invest in the companies and protocols that define this new technology and capture the most value. We aim to create hyper-value for our portfolio companies not only by investing capital but also by introducing talent, engaging in business development and sharing our knowledge to help refine strategic focus. In fact, we believe that our principal mission is to accelerate the success of our portfolio companies. Prior to this, I co-founded Beanstalk Ventures with Novel TMT, the technology investment vehicle of Silas Chou and his family, where we sought to invest in early stage retail technology companies.

Prior career highlights include:

*Driving significant revenue growth in just 2 years for the online and catalog division of Brooks Brothers.

*Playing a strategic consulting role in the launch of 2 Amazon.com divisions.

*Co-founding innovative market disruptor Poppin, achieving unprecedented product margins, often exceeding 75%.

*Founding pioneering online fashion retailer, Bluefly.com, growing from zero to over $40 million in sales.
