The people who do the work.

Alex DiNunzio

Alex focuses on helping companies scale, bringing structure and execution to complex, fast-moving businesses. At The Carbon Group, he works across strategy, product, and go-to-market, helping teams move from high-level direction to real, day-to-day execution. His experience spans early-stage startups through scaled organizations, with a track record of navigating growth, change, and complexity.

Alex was employee #1 at AssetBlock, joined Fuze when it had 17 employees and led product as it grew past 700, and raised over $4M for Jambb before helping drive a successful exit.

Despite living in New England and holding an MBA from Harvard, he remains loyal to Buffalo and can often be found quietly indoctrinating his four kids into Bills fandom.

Brandon Groeger

Brandon brings financial clarity and operational discipline to companies that are moving fast and need structure to keep up. At The Carbon Group, he works directly with founders to build financial models, manage risk, and align operations with growth. He previously co-founded Jambb, acquired in 2023, and has led finance and operations across startups from first model to exit.

Brandon holds both CFA and CFP designations, but spends most of his time on the details that actually move a business forward. He lives in Williamsburg with his wife and kids, where he lifts heavy things and knows more about cars than most people should.

Collin Woodward

Collin helps technology companies navigate complex legal, regulatory, and structural challenges, particularly in emerging and high-growth sectors like artificial intelligence and digital assets. As General Counsel at The Carbon Group, he works directly with founders, boards, and executive teams on all aspects of legal and operational strategy, including business structuring, governance, venture financings, litigation and dispute resolution, commercial contracts, and go-to-market.

On the AI side, he advises companies across healthcare and e-commerce on commercial, data, and vendor agreements, SaaS and product terms, and regulatory compliance, including data privacy and HIPAA. He brings a practical, execution-focused approach to legal strategy, aligning it closely with how the business actually operates and grows.

Based in Chicago, he spends his time outside of work exploring new restaurants and traveling the world whenever he can.

Sicco Naets

Sicco has spent more than 25 years helping organizations build, scale, and transform technology platforms, teams, and businesses. His career began in software development and engineering leadership and grew into executive responsibility spanning strategy, operations, partnerships, and growth. At The Carbon Group, he brings clarity to complex technical challenges and turns strategy into working systems, including the AI-driven platforms behind our current builds.

He was VP of Engineering at Fuze through its years of rapid growth and later led ecosystem development at Moonbeam, guiding platform strategy, governance, and engineering across a globally distributed organization.

Aaron Evans

Aaron is a technology executive with more than 20 years of experience building and scaling engineering organizations and large-scale software platforms across SaaS, cloud, and distributed systems. He joined Fuze as employee #4 and helped scale it to roughly 750 people, ultimately serving as SVP of Engineering and leading a global R&D organization of 150+ engineers through the company’s acquisition by 8x8.

At The Carbon Group, he leads engineering delivery and champions AI-assisted development, applying structured AI workflows across planning, architecture, implementation, testing, and review to ship reliable software fast.

Luka Koczorowski

Luka turns emerging technology into products people actually use. He led product innovation at Blueprint Software Systems, running a semi-autonomous group free to build new products, integrations, and technologies outside the company’s usual processes. Before that, he managed global teams at BlackBerry, where he rebuilt the software loading model to save his organization more than 14 hours a day.

At The Carbon Group, he works at the start of each build. Market research, positioning, prototyping, and the product decisions that determine what gets built and why.

Prasanna Ketheeswaran

Prasanna is a CPA and CMA with 18 years of senior accounting and finance experience across global, highly regulated environments. As CFO of the Moonbeam Foundation, he led finance for a globally distributed technology organization; before that, he held treasury and controller roles managing more than $100M in annual revenue and the audits, reporting, and controls that come with it.

At The Carbon Group, he builds the financial infrastructure early-stage companies usually lack. Clean books, credible forecasts, and reporting that stands up to audits and investor diligence.

Val Henderson

Val brings clarity and consistency to how companies show up, both internally and externally. At The Carbon Group, she works across brand, communications, content, and culture to help founders and leaders sharpen their story, align their teams, and move faster with airtight narratives that drive understanding and action.

Val’s work has appeared in and on Reuters, Fortune, Forbes, Inc., Entrepreneur, NBC Sports, MTV, Newsweek, USA Today, Olympics.com, and CrossFit.com, and she has spent more than two decades ghostwriting for politicians, public figures, and high-profile executives.

Val lives in Salt Lake City with her husband, five kids, and one bionic cat. In her free time, she is a voracious consumer of memoirs and queso and a fan of three things for which Utah is famous: independent film, hiking, and weak beer.
