From Breakthrough Research to Real-World Impact.
I partner with Technology Transfer Offices and research programs to accelerate the commercialization of groundbreaking discoveries, transforming your academic innovation into thriving, market-ready ventures.
The Shifting Landscape of University Funding
A major shift is happening in federal funding.
Government bodies like the NIH and NSF are placing increasing pressure on universities to do more than just publish research—they are demanding clear paths to commercialization and tangible economic impact. This isn’t just a challenge; it’s a massive opportunity for institutions that can build a bridge from their labs to the market.
I provide the specialized expertise to build that bridge and accelerate your path from grant-funded research to successful commercial outcomes.
A Flexible Partner for Your Institution's Goals

Tech Transfer Office (TTO) Advisory
I act as a strategic partner to your TTO, providing expert guidance on your commercialization process. This includes helping you evaluate your IP portfolio to identify the most promising technologies and developing targeted strategies for licensing or spinout.

My experience is a rare blend that connects directly to your mission:

As a Founder… I have firsthand experience building companies, which allows me to provide practical, real-world guidance to your aspiring entrepreneurs.
As a Grant Expert… I understand the funding landscape from both sides—as an applicant and a reviewer—and can help your teams secure the critical capital to advance their technology.
