Background

About

I'm a technology operator and investor based in Austin.

Over nearly a decade at Expedia Group, I served as Senior Director of Business Performance for Vrbo, focused on understanding marketplace performance, identifying growth opportunities, and helping drive better business results across the platform.

Outside of my corporate work I've invested in and explored dozens of technology startups across AI, crypto, aerospace, and media.

I enjoy building small experiments, exploring new ideas, and thinking about where technology is headed next.
