We are on a mission to make opportunity as equally distributed as talent is and I’m having a blast doing it! Prior to Guild I spent time at Salesforce and a Boulder based VC firm working with portfolio CxO leaders to help drive their social, mobile, AI and cloud digital transformations. In my previous life, I was a TV development executive responsible for producing and selling reality and scripted programming globally for networks including , FOOD, ABC, Showtime, and FOX. Always happy to connect!
