I am ready to roll-up my sleeves and work alongside forward-thinking teams
Salt Lake City is my home, and I am excited to be a part of the momentum the tech scene here is experiencing. I'm endlessly curious and find energy surrounding myself with people who are actively seeking new and creative ways to solve problems, build companies, and change industries. I always feel at home when I have the opportunity to roll-up my sleeves and work alongside innovative and forward-thinking teams. If there is any way I or Elevation Capital can help, no matter how early in the start-up journey you may be, please reach out.
