Hey Team - first off, hats off to @Brian Von Ancken for an epic LA event. I'm new to slack here so wanted to introduce myself!

Location: Los Angeles
Current Role(s): CEO of RIPE — a human leadership performance company. We work with VCs, their portfolio companies, and brands like Nike, Poppi, CAA, Kosas, etc. through leadership programs, off-sites, and coaching. Recently launched B2C group coaching cohorts & events, with a media arm in the works! .
I also run Swerve, my fitness company.
Hobbies: Working out, dad life (what up new dads!), sauna/ice hangs, cooking, and talking anyone's ear off about health/wellness/aliens.
Topics you're interested in connecting about: Building a media company, leadership work, and product/event partnerships (think: executive coaching events paired with workouts or sauna/ice sessions) --> we've got a few in the works for LA, NYC and Austin.
How you can help WGM: I've built and scaled gyms across NYC and the Hamptons, then pivoted to a VC-backed fitness tech company. Happy to help with strategy, marketing, finance, pitching/fundraising (led company through Techstars, raised +$10M), or leadership coaching. If I can't help, my network probably can.
