ABOUT ME

I’m an entrepreneur, venture partner and advisor with a passion for helping founders and leaders create businesses and teams that thrive. I spend most of my time these days as founder and CEO of Tercera, an investment and advisory firm specializing in the cloud professional services market.

After 25 years in technology and services, I've learned that the leaders and companies that invest in culture and put people first are those who ultimately win in the long-run.  

My goal is to share what I've learned over the years, and to create connections and opportunities for other entrepreneurs and business leaders who are looking to grow. I also want to solve real problems for real people along the way, whether that's in technology, within education or across global issues like poverty and homelessness.
