Who I work with

Sectors I know deeply.

Two decades inside creator, consumer technology, media, and marketplace businesses — the operating context that lets me add value from week one, not month six.

Creators & Talent

Management companies, agencies, the creator economy, and talent led businesses.

Digital Media & Advertising

Content, ad-tech, and digital publishing.

Content & IP

Licensing, libraries, and AI monetization.

Gaming & Interactive

Studios, platforms, and live services.

Music & Audio

Streaming, live events, and merchandise.

Subscriptions & DTC

Recurring-revenue, direct to consumer, and membership models.

Commerce, merchandising, and retail operations.

How I work

A finance leader embedded in your business.

Fractional in time, full in accountability. The same standard you'd expect from a full-time CFO — scoped to where you are and where you're going.

01

Right-sized scope

Engagements scale from a few days a month to a full fractional CFO seat — matched to the stage and the moment.

02

Embedded leadership

I sit inside the business, not above it — owning outputs, systems, and decisions rather than slide decks.

03

Capital-ready by design

Controls, FP&A, and reporting are built to institutional standard from day one, so the company is ready to raise or transact.

04

Flexible ramp

Bandwidth flexes up around raises, diligences, and board cycles — and down once the team can carry it.

Experience

Where I've held the seat.

Fifteen years across operating, investing, and banking roles — Fortune 500, PE-backed, and founder-led.
