I’m an adtech operator with over 15 years of experience working at the intersection of data, technology, and media. Today, I serve as SVP of Data + Identity at Viant (NASDAQ: DSP), where I focus on data partnerships, identity strategy, supply, and product strategy. The work centers on expanding addressability and people-based targeting, improving cross-channel signal quality, and enabling advertisers to drive measurable outcomes with precision and efficiency.
Earlier in my career, I helped build and scale advertising and data technology companies from inception through acquisition. My work consistently spanned product, strategy, and partnerships, with identity and data as the primary domains of focus. Each role informed how I approach platform design and ecosystem alignment.
Outside of work, I split time between building digital products during the week and building physical ones on the weekend. I spend a lot of time trail running in Woodstock, and wherever my travels take me. Woodworking, running, and hands-on projects are a counterbalance to software and strategy, and a reminder that good systems, whether digital or physical, are shaped by thoughtful design and solid foundations.
Alongside operating roles, I support early-stage founders through advising, angel investing, SPVs, and formal venture work. I’m a General Partner at Gambit Ventures, which focuses on early-stage companies that are either pure-play data businesses or generate a unique data asset as exhaust from their core activities. The goal is to be a practical partner, bringing operator experience to help founders make clearer decisions as they build, position, and scale their businesses.
