Dave partners with CEOs, CFOs, founders, and boards of $5M–$150M revenue companies to accelerate performance, modernize operations, and prepare for a transaction or liquidity event within a 36-month window. He serves as an operating partner and hands-on executive, helping leadership teams clarify strategy, tighten execution, and engineer enterprise value creation with speed and discipline.
Alongside his work with TechCXO, Dave is an active investor and LP in Hybrid Capital. The fund provides minimally dilutive growth capital to recurring-revenue technology companies. In that role, he invests in and advises founders scaling from $1M to $10M+ ARR, helping them optimize their GTM engines, strengthen operational fundamentals, and preserve ownership while pursuing meaningful, durable scale.
A founder, operator, and investor for more than two decades, Dave has built and grown mission-critical B2B SaaS and DaaS platforms at the intersection of media, marketing, and technology. He is best known for his tenure as CEO of Winmo, where he led the business from a scaling SaaS platform into the industry-leading sales intelligence solution for media and agency professionals across the U.S. and U.K. Under his leadership, Winmo expanded internationally, launched new data and AI capabilities, executed strategic acquisitions, strengthened recurring revenue foundations, and ultimately completed a successful private-equity sale and integration into a larger strategic platform.
Throughout his career, Dave has focused on building organizations where data, technology, and people work together with clarity and purpose. He has a track record of creating cultures rooted in collaboration, accountability, and ownership—cultures that unlock performance in teams and transform how clients sell, market, and grow.
Today, his work centers on next-generation data-driven infrastructure: platforms that don’t simply inform decisions but power them. He partners with exceptional founders and executive teams building scalable, durable solutions that become indispensable to the industries they serve.
Dave brings a blend of operator depth, investor intuition, and strategic clarity to every engagement, helping companies grow smarter, move faster, and create enterprise value that compounds.
