: Name: Robert Stankavish; Location: Portland, Oregon, United States

In May '06 my wife and I relocated from Chapel Hill, NC to Portland for her residency in internal medicine at Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU). OHSU was our #1 choice, so we are thrilled to be here and we hope to make Portland our long-term residence. Just prior to relocating, I earned my MBA from Kenan-Flagler Business School at UNC Chapel Hill. As a Carolina Venture Fellow I completed a 12-month internship with a venture capital firm. Prior to business school I spent 10 years with technology startups and public companies in a variety of roles including sales, sales management, channel development, product marketing, operations, and business development. I earned my undergraduate degree in Finance from Bryant University in ’94. I take pride in my career and I enjoy leading, managing, and helping companies grow. I thrive on working with intelligent, entrepreneurial minded people who are driven and passionate about success.
