Founded a few failed startups (mostly using tech to create kinder world), ran a few distressed startups to stabilize their tech platform, grow the business, and put order into total chaos during company acquisition (for private equity company), by continuously re-prioritizing, re-organizing, and holding everything together till stability/success is achieved. Used to working under pressure, super goal-oriented, full of initiative, do what it takes to succeed, sacrifice time and effort for team. Too many battle scars to count.
