About Me

MBA and entrepreneur based in Downtown Boston's historical Bay Village district.
I run my own venture capital firm which focuses on managing and investing in technology driven, sustainable businesses with a positive social and environmental impact.
In my spare time, I enjoy cooking, working out at the gym, reading and taking up new hobbies and interests. I love the outdoors and do a bit sailing, scuba, surfing and hiking in the summers and skiing in the winters. I enjoy music and like attending attending concerts and festivals and salsa dancing.
I enjoy travelling, learning about different cultures and people and sharing stories and experiences and at the end of the day I believe a person's life is measured to a degree by the people you connect with.
