EXITED STARTUPS
Juniper Labs (Exit to NEXT Insurance) - Juniper icreated the world’s first open-source database purpose-built to create significant value for commercial insurance companies. Their value proposition was the centralization and transparency we bring to this data as well as the solutions we are building on top of this open data platform. They created a community around data that enables curation, creation, and innovation for its members. I was an early stage Advisor.
MARBLE (Exit to The Zebra) - Advisor at Marble, the first rewards program for your home, car, and other personal insurance products, I also helped manage deal flow and fine-tune new processes as well and acted as the Designated Responsible Licened Producer (DLPR) for Life Insurance for the platform.
CURRENT PROJECTS
1Fort - 1Fort streamlines the process of placing cyber insurance for middle-market businesses, saving brokers and insureds time and money. I currently advise on distribution in the Independent Agent channel.

Using our unrivaled Decision Intelligence platform, Broker Insights VisionTM, brokers can efficiently explore, simulate, and act on data insights. I have been assisting with US market entry.
WOUND DOWN PROJECTS
Breezy (pet Insurance) - Breezy LLC, was a pet insurance aggregator (InsurTech) based out of Irvine, California. They worked on making Pet Insurance easy, and sharing while it is so valuable. Also, as pet insurance evolved, their goal was to help consumers make heads and tails of everything.
FINAEO - I opened up the US for the Toronto Canada based startup. I got myself and the company licensed in all 50 states before handing the responsibility off to a service provider. I helped build out and decommission our US office. I established cross-vertical partnerships with relevant software and Property Casualty partners. I explored the use of Zapier and other tech to help extend our reach and distribution.
