Life’s an infinite game. There’s no winning or losing, only how you play the game. I love playing, because even though you will never win, you can make a difference in the world. I’ve been building disruptive technologies for the last 30 years in Government, Finance, Transportation, and Human Capital. I find joy in delighting customers by overdelivering value. Now I’m taking on Banking, and building a new financial ecosystem, one that is social, inclusive and fun. For my work-life harmony, I love spending time with my family of 5 kids, I’m an avid tennis player (avid doesn’t mean good), and when I’m not building cool technology, I take on the role of “general contractor” at my home in Clearwater Beach, FL.
I have worked for some of the largest banks on Wall Street for close to 30 years before founding Flyp. I understand the financial pain points that many Americans face at one time or another. I grew up in a small one-bedroom house in Staten Island, New York. I was the oldest of three children and clearly remember hearing my parents whisper to each other their worries about paying the mortgage or the electric bill. I promised myself I would never be in that position and immediately jumped into a career in finance. Throughout my career, I realized the whole banking process and experience is completely outdated. Large traditional banks charge people exorbitant and unnecessary fees, and it stacks the odds of financial success against the average American. That is why we built Flyp. At Flyp we’re not only building a new way to bank – we’re building a completely new financial ecosystem. One that is modern, social, inclusive and fun! I live in Charlotte, NC, and love spending time with my wife, three kids and two very dirty dogs. Let’s Flyp the Power to the People.
In my career, I spent the 15 years before joining Flyp building an Institutional Fixed Income Sales & Trading compliance program inside and outside of the U.S., conducting surveillance of numerous regulations, and ensuring the businesses I partnered with had the guidance they needed to conduct their growing business. I have spent 24 years at major financial institutions, but Flyp offered something that all others in my career did not. It gives me a job I “get” to do, not a job I “have” to do. We are building a solution to help our community find new ways to move their money. Life isn’t all work and outside of work I have my awesome family, our dachshund named Ernie, a constant string of home improvement projects, logic grid puzzles, cross stitch, and my love of audiobooks all keep me busy. I especially love to “play in the dirt” (a.k.a. gardening) as well as volunteering in our local schools, at our neighborhood swim club, and supporting the Down Syndrome Association of Charlotte.
