Hi! My name is Gabe. 🙋🏽‍♂️ I have over 8 years of experience working in the startup & community world. I have had the opportunity to work with various communities of all shapes and sizes with singular missions to grow! 🚀 Each community has taught me to be a better community manager for the next and I am so excited to see my community management journey blossom. Previously, I have worked with other EdTech companies like TechTalent South, Career Foundry, Section4, and StackIQ. The majority of my career has revolved around the Startup ecosystem, from Lawnstarter to Pinwheel, I love working in fast-paced environments that offer challenging and exciting opportunities. I look for growth, transparency, and a good culture anywhere that I go. If you catch me outside of work, I'm an adventurous traveler - 6 countries and counting - and an avid lover of tennis! I also like meeting new people over a cup of coffee in person or virtually! Feel free to reach out. P.S. Here are 3 Fun facts about me! 🌹 I am OBSESSED with Schitt's Creek. I am a lot like David, with Patrick in the mix, and of course, I am definitely a little bit Alexis. 🤩 🤠 I am a native of San Antonio, Texas 🐶 I have a cockapoo who somehow manages to take all of my money

I've been working in professional community building for 20yrs+ since founding Econsultancy (a community for marketers learning about digital marketing) back in 1999 and, more recently, Guild, a platform for professional communities and networking. 

Skilled in business relations, digital marketing, sales process management, event organising, partnership development as well as customer support, I’ve been lucky enough to experience I wide range of operations within a fast-moving startup.
