    I am responsible for developing a best-in-class strategic investor relations program at GrubMarket. I lead all projects and activities related to late-stage fundraising, communications and PR strategy (both buy-side and sell-side), IPO readiness and preparation (planning and executing investor-facing activities, including conference presentations), capital markets research and expertise, corporate strategy and special projects, and corporate development / M&A strategy. I nominated GrubMarket for, and helped the company make it onto the CNBC Disruptor 50 list for two consecutive years (rising 18 spots in the rankings).
