“Multi-exit startup founder in supply chain/logistics + fintech + AI + IoT. Keynote speaker in AI as applied to ESG + international logistics”
As a seasoned entrepreneur and technology innovator, I have dedicated my career to transforming the logistics and supply chain industry -- having started, funded, and sold multiple companies across the supply chain tech ecosystem.
Currently, I am the co-founder and CEO of Fishtail, where we empower freight forwarders to do more with less by automating the manual bits of their entire shipment lifecycle -- helping them digitize their documents, push/pull data out of their TMS, pay their suppliers, and even extend credit to their customers. Historically, Fishtail started out as an ESG-enabled trade finance platform where we tied the interest rate of our financing to the emissions generated by the shipment (funny enough, two ships going the same route may have a 4x difference in emissions)!
My journey includes:
With a strong background in data analytics and a passion for doing the things that nobody wants to, I thrive on creating solutions that improve operational efficiency.
My experience spans various roles, from teaching robotics to fifth graders to leading innovative startups that have been acquired by industry leaders.
I am eager to share insights on the intersection of technology, finance, and logistics, as well as discuss the challenges and opportunities for SMBs in emerging markets. My diverse experiences and multilingual abilities enable me to connect with a wide audience, making me an engaging guest for any podcast focused on entrepreneurship, technology, or global trade!
