Student of resilience and optionality. 🇺🇲🇮🇱🇱🇹🇵🇹₿

Through rigorous self-discovery, I've learned that my strengths create some imbalances. Currently, I'm committed to the challenge of cultivating more gratitude, compassion, and humility. Ultimately, I seek to provide inspiration and hope through inspired, passionate storytelling and selfless leadership so that others can achieve their goals. I enjoy traveling and spending significant time and energy understanding and experimenting with high-performance states of mind. I have lived in Germany, Israel, and Japan and speak 4 languages. Whether attending Shabbat services, meditating, or caring for the deceased, I am looking to optimize my mind for unique insights in service of something greater than myself. A disciplined approach is a necessary foundation for developing a unique and pragmatic perspective. I explore emerging technologies before they are mainstream (e.g. Internet, social media, crypto). I travel to innovative global locations. (e.g. Estonia, Seoul, Crypto Valley). I have some understanding of what makes large organizations successful thanks to 6 years at Microsoft. I am grateful for some understanding of high-growth marketing owing to my time as VP/Marketing at Sprinklr as we grew from a $20mm Series A valuation to a $1.8 billion "unicorn" level over 4 years and my time at Gtmhub, where we grew 21x in 18 months. I have had the opportunity to work with top minds in blockchain, crypto-economics, smart contracts, and decentralization as an advisor to Open Bazaar, Zcash, DAOstack, SingularityNet, & Dapper Labs. I, fortunately, experienced 24 hours on the USS Carl Vinson, a US Navy aircraft carrier, a briefing with senior officials at the Pentagon, and 2 Tough Mudders. I have keynoted F50 executive-level events on topics including social media, blockchain, and AI. I try to live my life intentionally and am inspired by the thoughts of many including Moses, Lao Tzu, Marcus Aurelius, Thich Nhat Hanh, Satoshi Nakamoto, & Adam Smith.
