    GTD is an advisory firm to pre-seed, seed, and Series A stage companies tackling equity financing, GTM, product strategy, org dev/design, strategic hiring, and more. I've helped other companies raise ~$100MM in equity capital in the last 5 years, and that's separate from ~$50MM equity capital raising for Fernish. I've also taken countless products to market in a PM capacity, some of which now have 200MM+ users, and hired hundreds of employees across almost every job function. Let's put my experience to work!
