About Me

Let's talk about entrepreneurship, small business exits, or the crazy world of start-ups!

I started my career at broadcast.com, it was AudioNet back then, and I was tasked with selling webcasting to people who did not have a sound card or speakers for their desktop computers.

Once Yahoo acquired the company, I worked in London and then Silicon Valley. After leaving the company, I worked with dozens of VC backed startups as an executive, fractional CxO and coach.

I have dozens of stories from over 20 years experience that are informative and entertaining, and I can assure you that truth is stranger than fiction.

What are the most common reasons startups fail? Why Silicon Valley makes no sense and why that's necessary. What really happens inside a startup?

I am the founder of ExitGuide, an M&A platform for small businesses, and our mission is to democratize M&A and enable trillions of dollars in value to transition to the next generation of small business owners.
