I empower early-stage technologies to pitch stories that resonate with investors. I equip founders with the tools necessary to articulate their value propositions to customers. I enable corporate leaders to translate abstract goals into actionable strategies that rally their partners and deliver results. In a nutshell, I help people explain their vision in ways that compel others to act.
My passion and purpose are rooted in championing innovative business ideas. My clients have raised hundreds of millions of dollars and gone on to build billion dollar empires. In 2014, I led the creation of one of the largest angel syndication networks in the country. Later, I joined other local investors to build out the world renowned Applied Innovation center at the University of California, Irvine. Currently, in addition to my consulting, I assist in developing startup ecosystems around the world and manage a startup accelerator in Southern California.
In the words of Alexis Ohanian, the Co-Founder of Reddit.com and Partner at Y-Combinator:
“Shaun is an innovative problem solver who would often arrive at solutions none of us had even considered. Furthermore, a number of the projects he did were as analytical as they were artistic. That obsessive attention for detail as both an artist and researcher undoubtedly sets him apart from most.”
