This package is built for early-stage founders who are wanting to accelerate their path to building a successful startup with help from an experienced founder. Whether you're pre-launch, post-MVP, or in the middle of raising a round, this coaching plan is designed to meet you where you are—and help you go further, faster. You’ll work 1-on-1 with an experienced founder or operator to refine your strategy, overcome blockers, and build a company with real momentum. Available in 5- or 10-hour formats, this flexible package gives you high-leverage support across your most critical areas—from fundraising and GTM to team building and founder mindset. Common coaching activities include: - Fundraising Strategy & Pitch Feedback: Craft your story, build your deck, and prep for investor conversations. - Go-to-Market Planning: Validate your ICP, test channels, and drive early traction. - Product & Roadmap Feedback: Prioritize what to build (and what not to), based on real customer feedback. - Growth Experiments & Funnels: Design scrappy experiments to drive activation, retention, and conversion. - Hiring & Team Building: Recruit and retain early team members who raise the bar. - Founder Mindset & Focus: Manage stress, avoid burnout, and stay focused on what matters most. - Investor Updates & Board Management: Learn how to communicate clearly, build trust, and stay in control of your narrative. - Pricing, Packaging, and GTM Strategy: Get feedback on your model and position it to win. Each session is personalized to your needs—whether you’re trying to close your first 10 customers, raise a $5M seed round, or navigate early team dynamics. You’ll walk away with clarity, momentum, and a real partner in your corner.

Serial Sustainability Entrepreneur as well as Startup Mentor & Advisor
With years of hands-on entrepreneurial experience, I bring a deep understanding of what it takes to build, scale, and sustain a business. As the Co-founder & CCO of S2S Dynamics, a circular economy startup tackling e-waste through tech-driven solutions, I have led commercial strategy, partnerships, and market positioning to drive growth and impact. Prior to this, I co-founded and scaled a renewable energy company to million-dollar revenues, overseeing marketing, strategic alliances, and business development across multiple markets. My journey has given me firsthand exposure to the challenges of fundraising, go-to-market strategy, and sustainable business models—insights I now share as an adjunct professor mentoring startups and executives at IE University. Whether you're an aspiring founder refining your idea, a startup looking to scale, or a corporate innovator driving intrapreneurship, I can help you navigate the complexities of entrepreneurship with practical guidance and actionable strategies.
