Gametime builds technology that gets people out into the real world together. Our platform provides last-minute tickets to the most popular events in sports, music, and theater in more than 65 cities across the U.S. and Canada. I started my career at Merrill Lynch. I liked the numbers, but didn’t like the sales. I read Moneyball and decided to make the switch to baseball. I joined the Colorado Rockies as a Baseball Operations Intern. There were 300 people applying for the job. I wrote letters, flew across the country to meet people, and somehow got the spot. I was paid minimum wage and lived in low-income housing, but couldn’t have been happier. After working for the White Sox, I realized that my long-term career would not be in baseball. I made the switch to Google as a Senior Financial Analyst. After earning my MBA at Stanford Business School, I joined a small startup called Zappedy. After two intense years, we were acquired by Groupon. Founding Gametime has been one of the most rewarding - and challenging - experiences of my life. I love our team, our mission, and the industry we’re serving.
