- Founder & CEO, SimplyListedJul 2010 — Dec 2011
- For a number of years I've been frustrated with how difficult it is to sell stuff online, so I founded SimplyListed with the goal of creating an innovative new marketplace for used stuff. The vision was to make selling stuff as easy as taking a photo with your iPhone. I was responsible for building our iPhone app and online marketplace, as well as running every aspect of the business. SimplyListed was backed by Y Combinator, SV Angel, and Start Fund and has been covered by Mashable and Lifehacker.
