"I am the founding partner of STRIVE, a startup ecosystem that helps great entrepreneurs build exceptional businesses in merging and frontier markets. Joining Bpeace enables me to help entrepreneurs build better businesses in conflict zones where it is more difficult for STRIVE to operate. I am excited to work with you all and look forward to experiencing the positive impact we can have on both the Fast Runners and their broader communities."

@Bpeace:  Supporting Bpeace HQ in organizing data to launch a new CRM system


"I am very excited to join Bpeace. I spent two years in El Salvador as a Peace Corps volunteer working with micro-enterprises. I was struck by the desperate need for more significant support for the entrepreneurs in the country. When I learned of Bpeace, I identified it as an opportunity to continue supporting a country that I care so much about."
