Startup Advisor: Team Building & Marketing @ DataTribe
About
I build early-stage companies, programs and operations.For the past 20 years, I’ve worked alongside founders from idea through go-to-market, helping turn early momentum into real progress. My focus is execution: building the systems, cadence, and decision frameworks that reduce uncertainty, align teams, and drive outcomes.I operate at the intersection of founders, capital, and ecosystem — translating ambition into roadmaps, roadmaps into shipped work, and shipped work into evidence. I’m hands-on by default, systematic by design, and deeply invested in building companies that last.Where I add the most value:- Early-stage execution and operating cadence- Accelerator, Incubator and Venture Studio program design- Founder decision-making under uncertainty- Turning activity into measurable progress

FLOW was two success businesses. As co-founders, my wife and I created a new approach to two very different service industries by focusing on design, user experience and challenging traditional boundaries. In addition, we taught over 700 wine education classes on-site during the 6 years. Sold in 2014. FLOW - From The Garden Imagine an experience where you go back in time 200 years. A restaurant where you don't order, rather you experience 5 courses plus taste 3 wines where the food comes directly from local farms. The server is a storyteller who elaborates on the farms and farmers we sourced from and the history of the wine varietal. We created this 'Farm-to-Table' restaurant in 2012 with the idea of focusing ingredients on local farms and wine education. We were profitable immediately operating on a reservation only 2-3 week waiting list. We sold the restaurant in November 2014. FLOW - For Love of Wine Imagine if buying wine was like shopping for jewelry at Tiffany's. We selected one of the largest Malls in New England and created a business that was profitable after only a few months growing to 1M ARR. We revolutionized the approach by organizing wines in a retail environment (ex.in order from lightly sweet to very sweet).
