Board & Strategic Advisory

Sometimes what a founder or board needs most is an experienced, disinterested voice in the room.

I've sat on both sides of the table: as a co-founder and board member navigating conflicts of interest, competitive threats, and departing-executive disputes, and as an outside advisor helping other companies think through the same kinds of problems.

I can help with:

• Board advisory and governance guidance for early-stage and growth companies
• Navigating conflicts of interest, competitive spinouts, or founder/executive disputes
• Strategic partnership evaluation and negotiation
• Major contract review and negotiation (MSAs, purchase agreements, licensing)
• Exposure to cap table and equity structure questions as they intersect with governance and partnership decisions.

I bring a direct, get-to-the-point style, and I'd rather give you a well-reasoned "no" than an easy "yes" that doesn't hold up.
