Launching new projects by having thoughtful conversations with professionals.
That's how I discover new meaningful business opportunities.
Why you might be hearing from me
No pitch. Just your honest experience.
A lot of my work is discovery: reaching out to people to understand the problems they deal with day to day. If a message from me is what brought you here, this is how I work.
Nothing to buy
I'm not selling you anything. I'm trying to understand your world, not pitch into it.
It goes both ways
You get a stimulating conversation about your area of expertise. At various milestones I report back, anonymously, on what I heard from your peers.
20 to 30 minutes
A short, focused conversation. What you share genuinely shapes what gets built.
About
13 years in Greater China changed how I think about innovation.
Four years at Mach49 leading ventures for Fortune 500 companies. Three years as Regional Manager Greater China for Techstars, running startup programs and delivering corporate innovation with partners like Infiniti, MTR, and UNDP. The methodologies matter, but Asia taught me something else: speed over perfection, adaptation over process.
I've been a founder too. I co-founded and exited Strategy Quest, and today I build products through The Motion Bridge. I know what it feels like when it's your own money on the line.
I'm hands-on. I use modern tools to run experiments and get real answers in weeks.

Common questions
Most of my work starts with discovery: understanding a problem deeply before anything gets built. That means talking to professionals who live with the problem day to day. If I contacted you, it is because your experience is directly relevant to something I am researching.
