Built by someone who’s
done the work.

I spent 20 years leading and advising companies through strategic growth — most recently as Chief Legal Officer at Etsy, where I helped turn the company around post-IPO and pioneered audited ESG reporting co-equal with financial results in SEC filings.

I built GoodxGood because my students kept asking: Can I find a good job at a company I actually believe in? The answer is yes. This site — and this community — is the proof.
