Born in Brooklyn, then moved to Lower Manhattan where he eventually met Sean Yseult, who eventually became the bass player for White Zombie. They formed a short lived band called, "Life". Then enter Rob Cummings, also known as Rob "Dirt" Straker also known as Rob Zombie. Sean and Rob formed the band, then after their first EP "Gods on Voodoo Moon", their drummer left so they called on Ivan. He remained with the band until the middle of the "La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Vol. 1" tour. Releasing three full length records and a couple EP's before they signed to Geffen Records and released La Sexorcisto. He went on to produce records and had a band called "Healer" and a side project or two. He histed a weekly metal show in Portland, Oregon and continues to live a good life out there.

Rob Cummings, Co-Founder of DealCloud, talks about the importance of storytelling, lead investors, and his favorite slide in the pitch deck.

Dust off the landline and call up our latest feature episode - Dial M for Murder. It’s been years since Brose even used a rotary phone, he misses M but instead rings P for panelists and Stu, Kathryn James answer the call. The gang chat the almost perfect murder and answer age old questions such as who would even want to murder Grace Kelly? Tony Milland that’s who! But not before Rob Cummings and John Williams can stop the grumpy ol bugger. Stay on the line as we chat our first (!!!) Hitchcock flick and his last movie for WB, even if your parents are yelling at you to get off the phone

While working together at Falfurrias Capital, Rob Cummings and Ben Harrison experienced a need for vertically-focused software for the deal making industry.  What ensued was an 8-year growth story that achieved a significant milestone when DealCloud was sold to Intapp, Inc. in August 2018.  Make no mistake, DealCloud is still growing at a rapid pace and is a critical component to the Intapp growth story.  But for Rob and Ben, getting to an exit event capped an incredible run together from when they started as a 2-man operation inside of a “closet” at Packard Place. Now that the company has been sold – making legends out of Ben and Rob in Charlotte’s still young startup scene – I wanted to sit down and talk with Ben and Rob about their experience.  Sure AvidXchange and Red Ventures and even Lending Tree have made it big but DealCloud signals new times for Charlotte’s entrepreneurs. This feels different.  It was a homegrown team who raised money through multiple rounds and sold the business at life changing terms. Listen to Ben share a few stories of the early days.  How they had to hustle for deals and stay with friends and relatives on trips to Atlanta to save costs. It’s funny to hear Rob talk about where he was when the deal was announced and how that day fell into place.  It all worked out in the end and they are here to tell you more than you’ve probably heard them tell before.  It’s a great episode and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did recording it. Local Notes and thoughts: This is a time of year to be grateful for what we have in our lives.  As a community of people interested in watching Charlotte succeed as a startup hub, 2019 has been a very positive year and something we can all look back on as phenomenal year of growth.  Let’s look back on the positive things to celebrate from 2018 in Charlotte: DealCloud becomes a true exit story (read the story from the Charlotte Observer here). Passport raises $43 million from Bain Capital and is well on its way to being another unicorn startup here in Charlotte (read the story here). Tresata raises $50 million and joins Avid and Red Ventures as recent Charlotte unicorns (read the story here). Venture for America introduces another group of motivated fellows for Charlotte area startups (read the full story here). StartCharlotte and Innovate Charlotte both received $100,000 grants from NC Idea – propelling their growth and cementing their place in Charlotte’s startup ecosystem. Local startups like Skipper and Rabbu – among others raise money locally and from afar. Collective Hustle is founded by four women to make entrepreneurship and investing more accessible in Charlotte. Sam Smith announces the first Seed the South – highlighting Charlotte’s entrepreneurial ecosystem – will be January 9, 2019. Scott Pope launches the NC Health Innovators – which is working to put Charlotte on the map as a healthcare as a business startup ecosystem (read about their latest event here).

Welcome back to the Charlotte Angel Connection – the Charlotte Area Podcast linking entrepreneurs, investors, and the broader Charlotte community.  Our goal is to interview the individuals who are building, shaping, and influencing entrepreneurship in the Charlotte region so you can be invested in Charlotte’s growth. We pick up where we left off last week with Niki Chimburg and Natalie Vick – two Venture for America Fellows (www.ventureforamerica.org). Remember in our last episode we learned Niki keep an idea book with more than 175 business ideas stored away and is in the process of starting her first company right here in Charlotte after spending two years with Versame (www.versame.com).  We also learned Natalie landed a great opportunity with a group of VFA fellows by joining Rob Cummings and DealCloud (www.dealcloud.com).  Like Niki, the pursuit of the typical Ivy League investment banking career sounded dreadful and her path lead her to Venture for America – where she will likely one day follow in Niki’s footsteps by starting her own company. In this episode, we continue our interview by learning what Venture for America does to support and develop its fellows, what benefit the companies receive from having fellows for the two-year period, where Natalie and Niki thing they will end up in the entrepreneurship scene and more. Millennials get a bad rap sometimes but I think you’d be hard pressed to not see a bright future for both Niki and Natalie – and after meeting the rest of the fellows here in Charlotte I can assure you that quality runs through the program. When I set out to do this interview, I wasn’t intending on having it be a two part series but it carried on for about 50 minutes.  As such, there isn’t a true set up as I really just picked what I thought was a good stopping and starting point.  So we are going to go straight back into our discussion with Niki and Natalie.

In today’s session, we interviewed two very impressive recent college graduates who are working with startups in Charlotte as part of the Venture for America program (www.ventureforamerica.org). If you are not familiar with Venture for America, be prepared to become educated on this fast growing initiative across the country with a growing presence in Charlotte.  Today you will learn how this impressive set of college graduates are and will continue to shape Charlotte’s future. Niki Chimburg just wrapped up her two year stint with Versame and Natalie Vick is just starting her second year with DealCloud.  I’ve wanted to interview VFA candidates for the last couple of months and Niki and Natalie were gracious enough to join me for what turned out to be a nearly 50 minute recorded session.  Rather than doing an hour long podcast, I’ve broken this down into a two part series with each being under 30 minutes. Niki has always known she wanted to start something.  She’s been collecting ideas for companies and has an ‘idea book’ with over 175 ideas.  Now she’s ready to start using what she learned in her two year internship with Versame (www.versame.com), under the leadership of local entrepreneurs and brothers Jon and Chris Boggiano, to start her own company.  Versame makes wearable technology for early education and is located up in Davidson is great startup with offices in Davidson and Menlo Park, CA (Jon Boggiano was interviewed on Episode 003 of the Charlotte Angel Connection). Natalie, on the other hand, didn’t immediately gravitate towards entrepreneurship but found her path during her time at school.  She’s been with DealCloud (www.dealcloud.com) who is a CRM, deal management and business development for principal investing and M&A professionals.  She’ll eventually strike out on her own too but right now she’s still learning and growing under the guidance of a great, maturing Charlotte startup built by Rob Cummings and Ben Harrison (Rob was Episode 008 on the Charlotte Angel Connection) Things we discussed in today’s podcast: What is the process to become a VFA Fellow? What’s the dinner conversation like when you break the news to your parents that you are going to take the entrepreneurship program through VFA? What were their expectations of working for startups versus what has been the reality? What’s the network of VFA? What are the benefits of the network? What’s up next in the second part of this series?  You’ll have to listen in to find out what their plans are next, how VFA supports the fellows in their own startup ideas, what’s the benefit for the companies they work for, and other questions. Hope you enjoy Part I of this two part series!
