Q&A
What is your favorite part of your job?
I really enjoy working closely with entrepreneurial leaders to tackle the different challenges that inevitably arise as a company scales.
What attributes do you admire most in an executive?
A learning mindset with a willingness to experiment; a bias to action; having conviction, but at the same time being humble and flexible enough to take in new information and change course accordingly.
What do you do in your spare time?
I have three active kids that keep me busy. I train for triathlons and enjoy exploring the mountains around Charlottesville, our home. Further afield, skiing and sailing trips are the best.
