Has operated on both sides of the startup ecosystem—as a Techstars founder raising from firms and as a VC deploying capital—and brings a rigorous, user-first approach to evaluating and scaling new ventures.”

“Seasoned entrepreneurial operator who has raised $185M across ventures in seed treatment, drone spraying, gene editing, and biofuels. Has worked closely with accelerators including AgLaunch and Iowa Startup Accelerator as both a participant and later a mentor, and is now open to either founding a new impactful company or stepping into an experienced CEO/C-suite role.”
