Each year’s pill shows the assurance level of its filed statements — audited, reviewed (CPA review, less than an audit), or unaudited, as the filing’s own report or certification states it. A dashed pill marked * is inferred instead: the SEC minimum for an offering that size, which the issuer may have exceeded. No pill means we couldn’t tell. Headcount is the filing’s point-in-time count, not a year-end average. Manually corrected figures are marked “Corrected”.

Cofounder/Past President Savant Systems I’m passionate about working with smart home technology. It simplifies the way people manage their homes while maximizing the comfort, efficiency and enjoyment of their living space. As a pioneer in this field, I was one of the founders who brought the most innovative smart home technologies to market, and, ultimately played a vital role in the explosive success of this fast-growing technology. The trajectory from my earlier days as an executive at Excel, then Lucent Technology and later as a co-founder of the groundbreaking start-up, Savant Systems, has led me to my current venture, which might be the most exciting one yet Connected Homes Advisory, LLC. As a widely respected, successful entrepreneur, I’m able to leverage my business expertise and leadership in the telecommunications, consumer electronics and IoT technology arenas to offer select clients consultations on customizable home automation solutions. A few highlights about me… My career reflects a series of strategically orchestrated moves in leadership roles for Fortune 500 companies. These roles built the foundation that enabled me to start up organizations in the connected home space, with the success of each start-up fueling the future of my next venture. I’ve had a prominent role in mergers & acquisitions (M&A), initial public offerings (IPO), and venture capital (VC) funding for some of the most progressive companies in the world, including Excel, Lucent Technologies and Savant Systems. These industry-changing transactions are complemented by deeply rooted experience in team leadership, multi-million dollar P&L management, business development, strategic planning, sales, operations, channel and vendor relations and customer excellence.

About this data. Figures are compiled from public sources — SEC EDGAR filings (Form C, C-AR, 1-A, 1-K) and funding-platform pages — and may be delayed, incomplete, or restated by the issuer. Financial statements are as reported by the issuer; each year is labeled with its assurance level (audited / reviewed / unaudited). A valuation cap is the conversion ceiling of a SAFE or convertible note, not an agreed company valuation; post-money figures are computed as pre-money plus amount raised and are not a traded price. Crowdonomics is not a broker-dealer, funding portal, or investment adviser; nothing here is investment advice or an offer to sell securities. Verify all figures against the linked EDGAR filings.
