3x Founder. 1X. Co-founder & CCO at DFX | Upper Echelon - Intelligent Operating System for private capital. Building the Inner Circle to educate the next-gen to build & allocate capital with trust, impact, and longevity.

I work at the core of DFX/Upper Echelon’s operating system - designing the environment, standards, and processes that allow trust to hold and aligned relationships to scale. The future of private capital will belong to networks that can maintain coherence as the world accelerates. That requires more than investment strategy. It requires clarity of communication, alignment of behavior, and environments where the right people can find each other without noise. My work is making that infrastructure real, repeatable, and consistent across every interaction in the network. At Upper Echelon, I steward the operational architecture of the Inner Circle and the Founder AI Lab. I ensure that founders entering the ecosystem develop strategic clarity and communicative precision. I maintain the relational standards that protect trust among investors and capital partners. And I develop the next generation of operators through our Fellowship - preparing them to navigate complexity with judgment, not just efficiency. The network works because it is curated, structured, and upheld with discipline. Trust does not emerge by accident - it is built, reinforced, and protected. That is my focus. I believe the next era of private capital will not be defined by who has access, but by who has alignment - and who has the operational capacity to maintain it under pressure. My work is ensuring Upper Echelon remains the place where that alignment is possible. If you value clarity, trust, and long-term collaboration, we should talk.
