Advisory & Consulting
I've founded four companies and three nonprofits, and led R&D teams at Facebook, Google, and Capital One. I bring deep product thinking and a bias for innovation to every engagement —helping organizations of all sizes sharpen their product strategy, de-risk technical bets, and move faster from idea to impact.
The mix of real stories, clear frameworks, and practical tools landed well. The focus on AI as a genuine thinking partner strongly resonated with our direction for Enterprise Technology. We will double-down on design engineering as a core part of how we build our products.
David has been in our corner from the day we started in my garage. As both an advisor and board member, he's always available to jump on a call on short notice, whether we need a quick gut-check or a deeper strategic conversation. What makes David special is his ability to help us clarify our own goals and then weigh every business, product, and strategy decision up against them. He's a rare mentor who empowers you to make better decisions instead of just telling you what to do.
