"I believe great outcomes happen when great teams work together to disrupt the status quo. As a member of the Cisco Investments team, I’m excited to help foster outcomes that drive meaningful change."
What I Do
As a Venture Investments and Acquisitions Senior Associate, I source and support deals with cutting-edge startups and assist in providing them with the tools and resources needed to succeed.
What I’m Passionate About
I’m passionate about working with startups that are developing purpose-driven products supported by an all-star team.
My favorite navigational tool is a three-by-three life compass: Never give up. Do what’s right. Be the exception. I strive to live by these core values every day.
My family is everything to me, so in my free time, I spend every moment possible with my wife and daughter. We have the world’s nicest dog, Sammy, and the world’s grumpiest cat, Bo.
Where I’ve Been
Before joining Cisco Investments, I was on the direct investments team at the Berwind Family Office and a technology investment banker for BofA Securities. I also served in the military as an Officer in the US Army.
Where I Learned
My journey to Cisco Investments began at Bentley University, where I earned my BS in Corporate Finance & Accounting and my MBA with a concentration in entrepreneurship. I am also a CFA charterholder – a challenging credential obtained through the Chartered Financial Analyst Institute.
