TL;DR: Internet pioneer, entrepreneur, VC, 25 years leading engineering, product and digital media teams. I've been working with the web since... well, since before the web. At the time HTML was still in beta, dial up lines were slow, and we played games via telnet in a text-based console. I'm lucky enough to say I was there when the web was born. I lead a professional services team at Google, working with some of the most sophisticated advertisers and agencies in our industry. I'm passionate about using technology to drive growth and transformation for businesses and their customers.
