About Me

I'm a pharma-tech founder who learned hard lessons the hard way. Over 22 years, I built five companies: four exits, one glorious flop. Customers ranged from Israeli medical device startups to Verily, Amgen and the Fortune 1 company.

I work with a small number of well-funded life science executives using an inversion methodology based on 23 identified anti-design patterns. Instead of generic startup playbooks, we identify what's killing your competitive position and systematically remove the blockers to success.

If you're a Series A+ life science company dealing with competitive positioning challenges, let's talk.

Bob and Alice - an anti-love story

My latest book is a love story with twists into tech startups and international terror financing.

Bob and Alice is a thrilling journey into the hearts of two high-performing individuals, each navigating the shadows of their own fears and the demands of their careers. Bob, a Silicon Valley CTO, and Alice, a fiercely dedicated FBI lawyer, find themselves entangled in a web of international intrigue, personal challenges, and the unpredictable currents of love.

Between high-stakes missions and intimate moments, Bob and Alice explores the profound truth that a relationship thrives when both man and woman share the load, trusting each other to stand strong in their own moments of vulnerability.
Get Bob and Alice!
