WORK HISTORY
Co-founder @Starbridge Venture Capital
This is the fruition of a five year journey through space advocacy and financial services, with a dollop of high tech engineering and management on top. Recognizing that space development had reached a tipping point toward successful commercial activity, I first began working with others in 2012 to build an investment platform that would help enable our future in space.Two major factors drive this: I believe that humanity\'s future must involve major expansion through the Solar System; and the potential financial gains are truly \"unlimited\". The European \"discovery\" of the New World transformed this planet and turned Europe from a backwater into a major global player, and made several nations incredibly wealthy. Many of the consequences were unintended but the present global prosperity is largely the result of that exploration and associated technological development. I\'m proud to join the talented team, the founders of this new investment company, connecting those who are building the future with those who want to invest in the future.Starbridge is focused on space sector based technologies and solutions that have terrestrial markets that can be realized in investor friendly time scales. Today, at last, the future potential truly is \"unlimited\".
