STARTUP ADVISORY · CAPITAL RAISING · FRACTIONAL CO-FOUNDER

You don't have to figure this out alone.

I've built and exited three startups. Now I help early-stage founders navigate the hard parts, from shaping their idea to getting investor-ready, with the kind of honest, hands-on support I wish I'd had.

HOW I CAN HELP

The right support, at the right stage.

Whether you need a sounding board, a fundraising strategist, or someone to help run the business, I meet founders where they are.

Startup advisory

Hands-on mentoring and strategic support for founders navigating early-stage challenges.

Capital Raising

Refine your pitch, develop your fundraising strategy, and connect with the right investors.

Fractional Co-founder

A co-founder in your corner, without giving up half your company.

Chad has been an incredibly valuable sounding board for me throughout the development of Elevator Pitch. Having someone with his real-world experience as a successful founder has made a genuine difference. He has helped me think through decisions more clearly and avoid wasting time or making costly mistakes along the way.

He’s provided thoughtful review and guidance across everything from marketing strategy and messaging to identifying operational gaps, and advice on how to prepare for capital raising.

Importantly, Chad isn’t afraid to deliver the hard messages when they’re needed—always with the right intent and backed by experience.
