About Scott
Hey there! I’m Scott. Back in 2012, I began the ride of my life and joined Uber as one of the first 100 employees. Over 6 years at the company, I helped build Uber in Atlanta and scale our operations globally.
Since leaving Uber, I've mostly focused on investing. But ultimately, I have the most fun scaling businesses and I’d love to help you grow yours.
If you’re a founder ready to take your company to new heights, let’s talk.

FAQs
Why hire a fractional COO?
In a market that values profitability, having operations as a competitive edge is more important than ever. But finding a full time COO is hard, expensive, and can take 6-9 months to find the right person.
Bringing on a fractional COO can help you get a high quality executive working on your business sooner at a fraction of the cost.
Why should you want to work with me?
I’ve spent more than a decade in tech as an operator and have a good sense of what works (and what doesn’t). I know how to scale a high growth company, but I also know what it feels like to be in the trenches on the hardest days. While I won’t always have the answer, I will always speak the truth. When shit happens, I want to be on your speed dial.
What companies are the best fit?
I work across industries + stages, but find myself most often spending time with venture backed founders running Seed, Series A and Series B companies. What this typically means is that you have a product in the wild, have some degree of product market fit and are thinking about how to scale. More than anything, I love working with ambitious, curious founder led companies on a mission to change their industry.
How much does it cost?
I operate on a monthly retainer with a 3 month minimum. Generally speaking, working with me is faster than using an executive search firm and less expensive than hiring a full time COO. When I partner with your business, my mission is simple: to deliver as much value as possible.
How do I learn more?
