Hi, I'm Eliott

My name's Eliott. I'm Director of Partnerships at Profound. I've spent time working at startups across BizOps, Growth, and Product functions, including Shiftsmart. I also co-founded a transportation startup in college. In my free time, I've started running, enjoy cooking (Korean, mainly), and coach a youth soccer team in the Bronx on Saturdays.

Email is below if you want to chat or collaborate on something together.
