University of South Carolina- Columbia
I spent the past 24 years in innovation, marketing, and advertising agencies, most recently serving as CEO and partner of The Variable, a 6-time AdAge Small Agency of the Year winner and a 3-time FastCompany Best Workplaces for Innovators during my tenure. I’ve partnered with more than 100 B2C and B2B companies from pre-revenue startups to $10 billion in annual revenue behemoths across a wide range of categories to collaboratively help their leaders and teams identify and wrestle strategic opportunities and threatening challenges to the ground. I exited The Variable in late 2024, three years after successfully closing an investment deal with a fantastic PE firm in 2021.
