Strategic services for founders, funds, and post-raise teams
Strategic Signal Audit
Reveal the signals shaping your scalability and investability
A founder-focused diagnostic designed to uncover misaligned signals across your business, product, market, and team. This deep-dive identifies hidden gaps that may be distorting investor perception or limiting growth potential—then helps you recalibrate.
Founder–Investor Alignment
Build trust through clarity, consistency, and strategic narrative
Misalignment kills momentum. This engagement ensures your roadmap, metrics, and story speak the same language as your investors’ expectations. Ideal for navigating board relations, preparing for funding rounds, or resetting post-raise strategy.
Growth Renewal Strategy
Reposition for what’s next—before the curve flattens
Growth plateaus are predictable. The second curve unlocks your next wave of value creation. This service helps founders reposition offerings, resegment the market, and evolve their strategy before stagnation sets in.
Pre-Investment Due Diligence
Founder-friendly due diligence that builds confidence
For startups preparing for institutional funding—or VCs conducting independent diligence—I bring over 30 years of pattern recognition to validate traction, de-risk the thesis, and surface non-obvious issues before they cost you.
Portfolio Oversight for VCs
Improve post-investment outcomes across your portfolio
I partner with VC firms to help startups scale smarter, faster, and with fewer strategic missteps. From founder coaching to performance diagnostics, this service turns oversight into real operating leverage.
Investor Partner Program
Strategic advisory embedded in your capital
For VCs and investment teams who want a trusted operator embedded in their network. I act as a strategic extension of your firm—offering due diligence, oversight, and founder advisory without expanding headcount.
