About Me
Your Secret Weapon
With more than 30 years experience as a CEO and leader at venture and private equity backed companies, I know what you’ve got on your plate and I have your back.
I have been a CEO three times and have led each company to a sale. I’ve built, led, raised capital for, built, and managed boards of directors, and sold companies across multiple stages of growth, from early-stage startups to large-scale organizations.
My approach to coaching is grounded in real-world experience, offering CEOs and senior leaders the strategies and insights they need to drive growth and success while maintaining balance.
Some highlights include:
Founder and CEO of Castiron, sold in 2024;
As CEO of Bitly, grew the team and business and sold to Spectrum Equity in 2017
Grew AOL Local to over $50M in revenue in 2013
Built and sold Outside.in to AOL in 2011
Grew Seevast to over $100M in revenue in 2006
Helped grow and take About.com public and sell to Primedia in 1999 and 2000
91% CEO approval rating on Glassdoor
I’m the husband of one great wife and father to three amazing young men and the best dog ever. I’ve lived in Rhode Island, Boston, NYC, NJ, and now in Sag Harbor, NY. I obsess over Bruce Springsteen and Boston sports.
