It’s lonely at the top.

As a Founder and CEO, you bear the weight of the company on your shoulders. You experience the highest of professional highs, and terrible lows…sometimes on the same day.

It’s a dizzying ride at times, and you can’t burden others with it.

From idea, to launch, to fundraising, to building a team and scaling the business, and, ultimately, to exit…I’ve been there. I get it.

I started CFO JOE to help Founder-CEO’s navigate their entrepreneurial journey with the aid of an experienced, strategic, and financial perspective in order to see around corners, obliterate obstacles, and stay on track to create the most value for yourself and your stakeholders.

All while keeping you sane.
