Innovation - Seed / Early + Growth

The bold. The strategists. The critical thinkers. The simplifiers. The Midwesterners. The underdogs. The ones ready to flat out get it.

There aren’t many - but these are the ones with whom I partner. My style is important - and it isn’t for everyone - but most who know it, like it.

All companies are different - but we’re stuck with a lot of the same challenges. Building product is hard. Preparing the right deck material is challenging. Getting your story straight isn’t as straight forward as we’d like it to be.

I think there’s a lot of power in a ‘gut check’ from other founders and product people that are going through the same thing. People trying to build great product regardless of the size or stage of company. Join the link above or in the footer - I’d love to have you!

Where I help

  • Strong companies have strong foundations, and I think it comes down the three main things. You have to know who you are. You have to know what you do. And you have to know how to innovate.

    None of these are very easy to do by yourself. Elevate yourself by joining the Discord at the bottom of the page. Take control by joining my Patreon and I'll help you zero in.

  • Ohio is big, and Ohio wants to help! From Accelerators to Venture to Non-Dilutive to Innovation Districts.... the list goes on!

    I don't pretend to know about them all, but I do all I can to position companies in the best place to benefit from ecosystem contributors.

  • I've prioritized roles across the region to position myself as a steering partner across the ecosystem to help drive subjective collaboration.

    This is important because I am a loud voice for young companies among corporations especially when it comes to how difficult it is for young companies to work with corporates, and the results have become a flywheel.
