Your Advisor +
I’m a former SpaceX Engineering Manager and NASA engineer who’s led teams tackling some of the toughest technical challenges on the most aggressive timelines. I leverage that experience to help deep tech companies build strong, fast-moving teams that can develop and deploy the hardware of tomorrow.
At SpaceX, I learned a culture of extreme ownership and relentless testing. Today, I bring those lessons to early-stage companies that need practical, hands-on guidance. I focus on shaping team culture, processes, and leadership so engineers can deliver tangible results fast.
My approach
Leadership Coaching & Advisory: I don’t just give advice; I work alongside your team to provide leadership coaching and technical guidance. This transforms how your people tackle high-stakes, complex engineering efforts.
Responsible Engineering Mindset: I believe in rapid prototyping, clear ownership, and minimal bureaucracy. With the right balance of freedom and accountability, teams accelerate quickly without getting stuck in slow processes.
Results-Focused Execution: I advocate questioning assumptions and first principles thinking. That means cutting through the noise, aligning your goals, and iterating rapidly to deliver real outcomes.
Deep-Dive Technical Support: I go deep into detailed technical topics—reviewing designs, suggesting prototypes, and making sure your company doesn’t make the same mistakes others have. I’m here to help you tackle your toughest engineering challenges.
I’ve partnered with Aerospace and Climate Tech companies backed by top tier Venture Capital funds such as Founders Fund, LUX Capital, and General Catalyst, helping them advance from early R&D to real-world product development.
My hands-on, execution-driven approach means these startups don’t just plan; they deliver. Whether it’s optimizing team structures, guiding product development roadmaps, reviewing complex hardware designs, or developing a rapid test strategy, I’m dedicated to helping founders move fast.
