In my past life, I've been a construction worker (electrical), sold cars, operated equipment in the oilfield, and served in the army. Today, I've been a team member on two startups in Southern California; started two small businesses (ATM/payment processing & digital media publishing); and I'm currently a cofounder for a Techstars-backed renewable energy startup. I enjoy creating new products, companies, experiences, and art; and I like to listen to people and share in their experiences.
