I turn complex science and emerging tech into the pitches, speeches and stories that close funding rounds and win customer contracts — for founders whose product is years ahead of their pitch.
Your deck reads like a patent filing. Investors nod, then pass — not because the science is weak, but because they can’t retell it to their partners.
Your buyers are sold a feature list when they need a reason to change. Pilots stall. Contracts sit in legal.
Every person on your team tells the story differently. The market hears noise.
The same core narrative, engineered for the investor meeting, the enterprise buyer, the regulator and the podium.
The pitch deck storyline, the founder’s spoken pitch, and the data-room positioning — built by someone who has read decks from the buy side and raised money from the sell side.
Category, ideal customer, the one sentence that makes you the obvious choice — and the messaging architecture that carries it across site, sales and PR.
The materials a champion inside the customer can forward without you in the room — written by a former enterprise seller who knows where deals actually die.
Keynotes, TEDx talks, investor-day remarks and panel prep that make a room lean in — written by someone who has stood at the podium himself. The same voice then carries into bylines and LinkedIn, so the founder’s credibility arrives before they do.
I learn the science, the market and the money until I can defend your thesis in a room without you.
Every great pitch turns on one change in the world. We name it, and make your company the answer to it.
One narrative, then every version of it: the deck, the one-liner, the site, the keynote, the email that gets the meeting.
I rehearse it with your founders — from the pitch meeting to the keynote stage — and stay through the raise or the sales cycle to sharpen what lands.
Commercialized a state-of-the-art, pharma-grade technology and co-developed the Levia brand — a national best seller later acquired for $60M. Seven-figure deals and fundraises along the way.
Commercialization strategy, positioning and founder voice for a psychedelics therapeutics company.
In a crowded market competitors had taught to be skeptical, I rebuilt the narrative and sales process around what they couldn’t claim — superior service, a local team and in-house installers. Customer time to a signed deal fell from 5 hours across multiple meetings to 90 minutes.
Most marketers have never had to sell. Most salespeople have never had to raise. I’ve done both — and I’ve been the skeptic across the table deciding whether to believe.
