Success story
As CEO of Puradigm, I transformed a tech startup into a market leader, driving a 425% sales increase. I scaled manufacturing, launched 6 products, and secured $5M in Series A funding. To protect this growth, I led a $100M+ patent lawsuit against our top competitor. This demonstrates my ability to bridge technical innovation with aggressive P&L scaling and high-stakes risk management.
