Advisor

2015

When I first heard about Matcherino, my reaction was "I wish this was around when I was working on Big Crits." Since that first meeting, I've always made myself available to CEO Grant Farwell as a mentor and advisor. I provide weekly coaching on leadership, management, people development, and sales.

I connect startups with the resources they need to succeed either through our Startup of the Year program or our innovative clients' program. Our clients include AFWERX, NASA iTech, CTA Foundation, Capital One, and more. I'm personally responsible for business development and managing client engagement. Additionally, I oversee or contribute to many aspects of our business including: office hours, Daily Dealflow newsletter, partnerships, events, content, investing, and programming.

Co-Founder & Managing Director

Engage Here d.b.a. Engage Colorado was founded with the goal of bringing communities together. After working together on #BSW13, Tim O’Shea and Rich Maloy had a bigger vision to unite communities across geography and industry boundaries. With this vision in mind, we decided to bring a new event to Boulder, as well as support startup weeks around the world. In 2014 we organized NewCo: a one-day intensive celebration of the entrepreneurial community in Boulder. Outside of our Colorado communities, we are supporting the efforts of a number of startup weeks around the world.

Lean Startup Practice Director

2017 - 2017

Econic helps forward-thinking enterprises innovate faster and more effectively by providing training and consulting services that tap into emerging startup opportunities. I unlock the innovation that already exists inside corporations by leading select teams through on-going lean startup training that befits their organization. It's like a custom built accelerator for in-house startups. We give executive the knowledge they need to understand and champion lean methods, and the team the tools they need to build, measure and learn.

North America Manager - Global Entrepreneur

2014 - 2017

Supporting the growth and development of tech companies and startup communities through mentorship, connections, and access to technology resources. IBM's startup program was created to help early-stage startups supercharge their business within a 12-month incubator program that offers free best-in-class marketing and technical support, hosting, and mentoring. I started as the Community Development Manager for the Rockies & Midwest, and was promoted to manage the US & Canada team. In my role, I have hired and trained six remote employees, and manage a team of direct reports of up to nine, as well as a number of dotted-line relationships. As a first-line manager, I'm responsible for both producing as well as managing. My focus is two-fold: advocate IBM Cloud in the Rockies, support the North America team as they advocate IBM Cloud through the Global Entrepreneur program. I'm proud of the team we've built, and the lucky that we get to go out into the world every day and make a difference in the lives of startups and founders.
