The experience behind the advice

From building a company to building an enterprise.

At New Frontier Data, I started with approximately $25,000 and built an international data and analytics company with more than 100 employees across three continents. The company achieved a valuation exceeding USD $50 million.

Those lessons, especially the difficult ones, inform how I work with other leaders today.
