SEEKING WORK - LOS ANGELES / REMOTE / Travel: 
Biz Dev / Partnerships / PR / Product Strategy / etc
Currently wrapping up a yearlong project that Elon Musk funded me to do (an awesome experience, to say the least!), and I'm looking for a short/mid term gig (or perhaps something longer) to bring in some money while I prepare for my next big thing.  (Available to dive in immediately.)
Background: tech entrepreneur (business guy) / social entrepreneur. Got an early start in the startup world, serving on the founding team of Hotline back in the day (chat software used by millions (and by companies like Apple &amp; Avid) and called "a major force in the online world" by the Toronto Star at the time).
