DAN PAUN

I’m a founder and operator with over a decade of startup experience. After eight years of bootstrapping, I raised my first round of funding from a private investor who believed in the mission.

Today, I lead a tech company formed through the merger of multiple startups. My background includes business development, operations, and team leadership across high-growth environments.

I wrote The Hurdle to offer practical, honest insights for founders navigating the real challenges of startup management.
