Current project: flexdrive Car Subscription
Launched in 2014, flexdrive is defining the category of on demand car subscription - a new alternative to purchasing that solves the pain points of buying, owning and disposing a car.
The flexdrive marketplace creates value by connecting growing consumer demand with car inventory available at
participating dealerships. The marketplace facilitates transactions by eliminating the friction of traditional vehicle retail.
Our patent pending cloud based platform is designed to deliver a profitable & highly scalable subscription program for any use case - domestic or international.
Optional integrated services include comprehensive fleet management with over 90k authorized service centers nationwide; customizable usage based insurance; & various vehicle telematics options.
Our team has over 100 years of experience in automotive, technology and marketing.
Our investors are Cox Automotive and Holman Enterprises.
Flexdrive has deployments in Denmark (Dribe) & in Canada (AutologiQ), with more international markets coming soon.
The flexdrive marketplace has participating dealers in Atlanta, Philadelphia, New Jersey, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Dallas, Ft. Worth, Dallas, & Austin, with new markets launching soon.
Flexdrive is a partner of Lyft’s Express Drive and powers the vehicle subscription program.

I have started several businesses independently and within large companies. Both bring their unique challenges, but the most rewarding thing is building teams and the opportunity to lead them to achieve uncommon goals.
My favorite quote I discovered in the vast index card catalog of the late great Steve Sabol - “few people are successful unless other people want them to be”.
