I began my career at a small New England ISP in 1995 as a teenager. Moved to California to become Netscape's youngest employee in 1996. Co-founded Tellme with Mike McCue in 1999; acquired by Microsoft in 2007. Founded Upserve in 2009, acquired by Lightspeed Commerce in 2020. Joined Foundation Capital in 2019 to invest in founders. Co-founded Alianza Capital in 2024 with Brent Grinna to invest in Puerto Rico. Most important job: Dad to 3 boys with my family co-founder, Joanna :-) In my native Rhode Island, I served on the state board of education; helped establish Teach for America's Rhode Island corps, and helped open one of the state's highest-performing public charter schools. In Puerto Rico, I serve on the board of non-profit Dorado Cares and I am an active investor in the local innovation economy. Skills & knowledge: Leadership, product/technology strategy, sales, early stage technology investing, product marketing, venture capital & private equity, etc. The stuff you learn over decades of entrepreneurship.

I am the Co-founder and CEO of Fleet Labs, an all-in-one sustainable commuting solution that helps employers and employees save time, money, and emissions. With over a decade of experience in mobility, sustainability, and transportation tech, I am passionate about creating a new age of flexible and green mobility for the future of work. Before Fleet, I led technology and growth for a European train operator, expanding to 60+ cities. I also founded a mobility incubator, producing the first P2P carsharing service in Eastern Europe. I have published work on startups, founders, and the 1099 economy, and advised and partnered with various early-stage ventures, investors, and organizations in the mobility sector.

As a seasoned HR and recruiting leader with over 15 years of experience, I am passionate about finding, attracting, and retaining top technical talent for innovative and mission-driven companies. I have been the Head of Talent at CaptivateIQ since 2020 and previously built talent and engineering teams at Palantir, Twitch, and WeWork. In my spare time, I also consult and help early-stage founders and companies develop talent/HR processes, build out their culture, and find their founding engineers.
