Recent Venture

My recent venture WDG, an enterprise digital experience agency, was acquired by growth oriented Private Equity firm, Trinity Hunt Partners to enhance their tech-enabled marketing suite, Agital. WDG was designed to service enterprise clients including Barnes & Noble, American Red Cross, the Ford Foundation, University of Pennsylvania and the Executive of Office of the President.

Prior Ventures

Before WDG, I ventured into the niche of government hosting and web technology with GovTrends, which I later sold to a leading competitor. Clients included the United States Congress, Senate and Department of Health.

Prior to GovTrends, I founded AcquireNow, focused on data analytics, online acquisition and customer engagement with clients such as Godiva Chocolate, Wharton University, Kimberly Clark and IBM.

These experiences have not only honed my skills in identifying lucrative market opportunities but also instilled in me a profound understanding of what it takes to build a business that stands out for its strong EBITDA performance.

How I can help

Vision for Advisory Roles: I’m passionate about supporting young entrepreneurs, startups, and established businesses that are ready to reach the next level. With my playbook, I help companies overcome operational hurdles, develop cohesive leadership teams, and drive innovation through AI and digital solutions.
