About me

I'm Zach. I've co-founded three companies and sold two. The third, which I've since stepped away from, was valued at $160M at its last priced round.
Â
Most founders I meet need an operator, not another adviser. I've been on the founder side of the table, so that's what I try to be.
Â
At that third company I delivered the winning pitch at the 2024 SelectUSA world finals, first place out of 260 participants. I also won the 2024 NAMIC Start-up Innovation Forum in Singapore.
Â
I trained as a neuroscientist and previously ran an incubator in Canberra.
I've set up a US subsidiary and run teams across countries.
Based in Australia and the US.
Probably a good fit: Australian founders, pre-seed to Series A, raising or heading to the US, who want one experienced person.
Probably not: if you want a big firm or a permanent outsourced COO.
30 minutes. We'll see if I can help.
