Our story

Hi, I’m Ed Messman. I’m a 3x VC-Backed CEO each with their own shape of exits. I’ve raised millions in VC, established many strategic partnerships and have exited to public and private companies.

I’ve started and built companies while being a husband (now 30 years in) and a father to three kids (now 25, 24, 21). It’s all hard, and it’s complicated. I’ve seen a lot of carnage along the way. The Steamboat Reset is designed for you…us.
