Empowering Cross-Geography Tech Leaders with Shamanic Wisdom
I’ve cracked the code of technology leadership, and it’s been formalized into something called the Fusion Framework. This “shamanic wisdom” is geared towards cross-geography tech leaders. It empowers alignment within your C-Suite and unleashes unbridled power within your technology team. It’s accessible and fun!

The CTO or tech leader
Someone who’s working for an organization that’s plagued with many locations and managing a myriad of technologies. Typically, a franchisor or kiosk network operator. My target market is QSR, EV charging, and franchised retail stores.
Each of us are Unique
The term ‘shaman’ carries a unique resonance. It evokes curiosity and captures the essence of what I offer. I view technology not just as a tool, but as a way of life—a realm that demands a guiding hand, much like a tribal chief navigating uncharted waters. By branding myself as a technology shaman, I aim to embody this role of spiritual guidance and leadership, offering invaluable insights to the Chief—the discerning investors, owners or operators navigating the complexities of a digital landscape.
A Journey of Focus and Unknown Beginnings.
Without a CTO, startups grapple with the complexities of tech decisions and crafting a unified tech roadmap, leading to inefficiencies and missed innovation opportunities. It’s a roadblock to scaling up swiftly and staying ahead in a competitive landscape.
A Safari Filled with Modernization, Simplification & Consolidation.
Acquiring a firm with existing talent poses challenges for investors in driving tech innovation and optimizing operations for modern markets. It can hamper the firm’s agility and growth potential, risking diminished returns in a fast-paced investment landscape.
Prospecting the Great Unknown in Hopes of Prosperity.

When engineering and IT isn’t aligned with the C-suite, MSPs or VARs grapple with bridging the gap between tech solutions and business objectives. This mismatch stifles innovation, strains client relationships, and hampers growth in a dynamic market landscape.
It’s Not The Age, It’s The Mileage

Through these collaborations, I’ve amassed a depth of understanding and experience that belies my years, positioning me as a trusted advisor with the wisdom and acumen of a seasoned leader.
I Create Awesome Stuff
In the realm of technology, I’ve chosen to embrace the moniker of ‘technology shaman’—a playful yet intentional choice that sets me apart. My aim is to leave a lasting impression, weaving authenticity and originality into every interaction without succumbing to clichés or self-aggrandizement.
Revered as a guru, confidant, and leader in the fast-paced world of private equity, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise to the table. My passion lies in cultivating teams and harnessing the transformative power of technology, drawing inspiration from industry pioneers like Xerox PARC, Bell Labs, and Apple. Obsessed with the magic of brands like Macy’s and Disney, I worship at the altar of Essentialism.
In a world enamored with complexity, I champion simplicity as the cornerstone of greatness. Just as a master carpenter can create beauty with basic tools, I believe in the inherent power of simplicity to unlock true potential. With a fusion of strong leadership, deep expertise, and a relentless focus on simplicity, greatness becomes attainable.
My Mindscape, dubbed ‘The Fusion Framework,’ is poised to revolutionize the landscape of tech and teamwork. Join me on this journey as we align ourselves with executive committees and unleash the full potential of technology and collaboration.
Born and bred in northern NJ, I was immersed in the hustle of the NY area, a crucible for competition. In this dynamic environment, I learned the value of reputation and self-awareness – potent assets in any arena.
With over 20 years in technology, spanning roles from field engineer to management executive, I’ve honed my craft. I’ve been pivotal in three startups, each soaring past the $50 million mark, and witnessed the exhilarating journey of taking a company public.
As a Xennial, I emerged from one of the most transformative eras in recent history, where the vibrant 80s and 90s encouraged boundless exploration before the Internet reshaped our world. This fuels my fervent dedication to essentialism, anchoring me amidst the digital storm.
This formative period instilled in me adaptability. In today’s swiftly changing technological landscape, I prioritize agility over steadfast allegiance. Tethering myself to basic building blocks, I embrace disposable flexibility, navigating with purpose and harnessing the power of simplicity
I live by essentialism, finding joy in helping others thrive. My mission? To transform the good into the truly extraordinary. I’m fueled by the desire to leave a legacy of success and style. My work propels me forward; for me, completion outweighs perfection. Craftsmanship, camaraderie, and clear communication are my guiding lights. Striving for excellence in leadership is my mantra.
I value the how’s and the why’s far more than the what’s. The results only matter if they serve the mission of each person on the team. In a material world, the immaterial carries a greater weight.
