Hi! I’m Chip Herndon.

Fascinated with technology and business from an early age, I filed for my first company at fifteen. What started as fun hobby to make some side money, quickly developed into a passion. Soon I found myself working with multiple early-stage ventures helping develop their brand and strategies, becoming familiar with the fascinating world of startups.

Like all innovators I’ve endured the pain of failure. Previously I cofounded a bootstrapped social media startup, Chatterbox. After growing it using viral marketing tactics reaching over 250k people, the app was shut down due to inactivity. Now I’m working to end gun violence through the power of machine learning at Edgecase.
