ABOUT
I'm the CEO and founder of Peek -- the mobile messaging handheld that's the easiest and most affordable way to stay connected by email, text, and more. I was one of the founding team at Virgin Mobile in the US.

As one of the original members of the Wireless Founders Coalition for Innovation, I have been a contributor to the policy dialogue around the wireless industry, recently having appeared before the FCC and Senate on spectrum matters. I have been quoted in a range of media including C-SPAN, NPR, Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, BusinessWeek, USA Today, and CNET. I'm also an original member of the Founders Roundtable.

I was a consultant at McKinsey & Company in New York. Some of my personal interests include various property developments in Long Island City in New York City; writings that I have contributed to Salon, BusinessWeek and Strategy & Business; and even a photo of mine that is in the collection at the Museum of Modern Art. In high school, I was a national champion in debate.

I wrote a Ph.D. dissertation in cognitive science at Stanford University after completing my undergraduate work at Columbia University.

I live in New York with my family.
