A former startup founder turned investor, I understand the barriers to startup progress. Extremely founder-focused, I collaborate with founders so that every interaction is a step towards progress – whether it be in discovering a key insight, narrowing in on the market problem, or in making a strategic connection.  

I work as Startup Development Manager for the Greater Green Bay Chamber and am also Manager of Tundra Angels, an angel investor network based in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

Previously, I was Co-Founder and CEO of UpperRoom Technology, a capital markets tech startup in the fixed-income industry. UpperRoom took an idea, did extensive customer discovery and built out a patent-pending algorithm and web product. In 2017, UpperRoom went through the Wisconsin-based accelerator, gBeta, and in 2018, raised venture capital from FIS, a Fortune 500 corporation and the largest financial technology company in the world.
