About

My passion lies in mentoring both startup and non-startup founders on the ideation process. With my diverse experience as both a founder and team member of various organizations, I possess both artistic and analytical skills.

I have aided numerous individuals and startups in developing their ideas, providing guidance on how to iterate and pivot to achieve success. This involves thorough analysis of the idea and market research to determine its viability.

As a mentor, I often play the role of an idea therapist, actively listening and asking the right questions to help individuals reach their desired goals.

  • I am looking for new investments
  • I like to learn about industries and new businesses

As a mentor, my motivation is fueled by my passion for entrepreneurship and my desire to help others succeed. I find great joy in sharing my experiences, knowledge, and skills with founders and non-founders alike, and I take pride in contributing to the growth of the startup ecosystem.

Seeing the impact of my mentorship on the success of the individuals and startups I work with is incredibly fulfilling. I’m motivated by the knowledge that I can make a meaningful difference in someone’s life, and I’m constantly inspired by the creativity and innovation that comes with the ideation process.

Also, my own experiences as a founder and team member have given me a unique perspective on the challenges and opportunities that come with developing successful ideas. I’ve made mistakes, faced failures, and learned valuable lessons along the way. By sharing these insights with others, I hope to help them avoid common pitfalls and achieve success.
