About

My commitment to improve our world through technology has led me to a 10+ year career of joining mission driven startups at the earliest stages and scaling them into exponential growth. Now, I help thousands of immigrants send money back home in the safest and most cost-efficient manner.

As the 2nd hire of Clip ($1B+ valuation), I helped democratize payments in Mexico. At InnerPlant (1st business hire, +$20M raised), we bio-transformed crops into sensors to increase yields while reducing agrochemical usage. At Shef ($100M raised) I managed the company's largest P&L; we helped thousands of people make a meaningful income by sharing their food. During my MBA, I co-founded what became one of the largest startup incubators at UC Berkeley.

Crazy about extreme/outdoor sports: paragliding, whitewater kayaking, skiing, kitesurfing, mtb, diving -> same adrenaline as in startups!
