Carl directs operations for the North Texas Angel Network. He brings management consulting and business development experience in the tech industry across several startup and scale-up companies. His specific expertise is identifying product-market fit and go-to-market strategy. Carl's role in the North Texas Angel Network includes sourcing deal flow and executing due diligence.

Most recently, he led business development to launch a new startup accelerator for global early-stage investor Techstars, which focused on companies innovating physical health, called Techstars Physical Health Fort Worth, powered by the City of Fort Worth and the University of North Texas's Health Science Center.

In 2023, Engage Dallas invited Carl to join this year's cohort. The institution was founded in 2012 by serial entrepreneur and startup ecosystem builder Trey Bowles and former Mayor of Dallas Mike Rawlings directly after he took office for 25-40-year-old leaders to learn how to make an impact in the city.
