As a technology entrepreneur and investor for the past three decades, I have spent the majority of my adult life carefully managing assets and creating increased value for my family, friends and employees alike.  Since 1992, I have founded and sold six businesses in technology and real estate.   In 2021, I sold my primary business, a global telecommunications company, to a multi-billion dollar private equity firm.   

​

In pursuit of my passion for skiing and the beauty of the mountains,  I decided to leave South Florida after 30 years and spend more time in Colorado.  To arrive with a completely fresh perspective for the next new challenge,  I sold my holdings in Florida to focus exclusively on Barton VC to build a world-class portfolio of equities, alternative investments and luxury real estate. 

​

Since 2003, my active and passive investing efforts have yielded
an IRR of 22.7% across all invested capital.

At Barton VC, we follow a disciplined investment thesis across our select venture opportunities and other traditional and alternative investments.
