BIO
Founder and CEO of Tivara. I started my entrepreneurship journey at 18 years old: As soon as I could sign a personal guarantee, I started flipping houses to (successfully) pay for college. Building software to automate the tedious aspects of my own due diligence opened my eyes to the magic of code. Since then, I led growth (10x-ed revenue) at Fair Square (W20) and worked as a consultant at Bain. I studied computer science and financial engineering at WashU.
