Overview

I started Summit Pay to fix D2C food brands for teams who were tired of the workarounds. Grew the team to 40 people across 3 countries. Previously built and sold a small D2C food brands company. Before that: Teva and Talabat. Most at home with marketing and supply chain. Into vintage synthesizers.
