Ohio has everything it takes to be a powerhouse—top-tier talent, a thriving startup scene, and a business-friendly environment. It’s a place where innovation meets opportunity, and I love seeing how the state is evolving. With strong universities, a lower cost of living, and increasing investment, Ohio is becoming a magnet for entrepreneurs growing their big ideas. I’m excited about the momentum and the role The O.H.I.O. Fund can play in taking it to the next level!

I bring a mix of venture capital, operations, and marketing experience, which means I understand both the big picture and the day-to-day challenges of growing a business. Being from Cincinnati, I know firsthand the incredible talent and potential Ohio has. I love connecting people, optimizing processes, and making things happen—skills that will help drive The O.H.I.O. Fund’s mission forward.

The O.H.I.O. Fund is more than just capital—it’s a game-changer for Ohio’s growing economics. By investing in bold ideas and supporting founders with the resources they need for growth, the fund can fuel job creation, attract top talent, and make Ohio a true leader in innovation. I see it as a bridge between the state’s deep industrial roots and its bright future in tech, healthcare, and beyond. The impact will be huge, and I’m thrilled to be part of it!
