I am the Founder/CEO of PuppTech Inc. an early stage pet technology based in Denver, CO. In the last five years I've designed and built a cloud-connected IoT product that started as just an idea and ended up being manufactured and delivered to hundreds of customers from our successful crowdfunding campaign and to our distributor. Along the way I built an amazing and committed team, raised money from angel investors, taught myself to be a software developer so I could build our platform, and developed the vision and business strategy that guided our team to success.
I'm a born leader who can quickly assess and take charge of a situation, which is why I have ended up running nearly every organization I've ever been a part of. Startups are my passion and I love exploring the ways in which businesses use creative technology solutions to solve market challenges and provide their customers with amazing products and experiences.
