Chadd SJ Ciccarelli, Angel Investor

Chadd SJ Ciccarelli is a passionate start-up enthusiast that is originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Chadd is a product geek that comes from a blue-collar, entrepreneurial family who inspired him to start his own business while finishing up high school. Chadd started his own water gardening retail and wholesale business to help pay his tuition with another partner. The business proved to be successful enough that he even sold his business upon graduation to pay off his student loans. Today, as both a global tech leader across e-commerce and cloud computing, Chadd has helped countless small-medium businesses to share their brand story with Amazon’s 300+ million customers globally and enabled numerous enterprises to adopt Amazon’s best practices in leveraging AWS cloud services. Chadd is also a globally recognized angel investor and invested his own funds into a wide array of startups. Outside of this tech stuff, Chadd is always looking for ways to improve his jazz guitar playing.
