Joey Skavroneck

Here’s someone who’s absolutely crushing it. Joey Skavroneck. This guy’s the real deal in the startup world. He’s a YC S23 alum, and he’s rocking it as the Co-Founder and Chief Growth Officer at Craftwork, a fresh Charlotte-based startup that’s trying to totally shake up home repair and painting services. Think about the $500 billion home services market-Joey’s out here trying to make it smarter, more sleek, more tech-driven. No bullshit, he’s got big visions.

But his process’s way more than just that. Joey isn’t new to scaling big companies. Before Craftwork, he crushed it at Zoomo, a e-bike startup, where he wore multiple hats-Advisor, Director of North America, Head of Consumer Strategy & Ops, West Coast GM. Basically, he was the guy making shit happen, helping Zoomo grow fast and hit new markets. That’s where he really cut his teeth on growth, partnerships, and taking startups from good to legit.

And get this-Joey’s background? It’s stacked. He started out as a management consultant at PwC, then jumped into the startup scene with stints at Cruise and Bestmile as an MBA intern, plus he did some work at Engage Ventures. He even founded Buzz Rides, a green transportation and advertising startup, so he’s been in the trenches building stuff from scratch. That mix of consulting, startups, and his own ventures shows he’s all about innovation and hustle.

Education-wise, he’s got an MBA from Stanford GSB-talk about credentials-and a BS in Business from UNC Chapel Hill, with some study at Copenhagen Business School thrown in. Basically, the dude’s got the brains and the grind to back it up.

What’s wild is how he’s using that experience. Joey’s all about blending craftsmanship with tech, making home services more modern and accessible. He’s not just throwing up a startup for the hell of it; he’s got a vision to disrupt a huge industry with real tech and real skills. That’s why he’s so important-he’s combining legit business savvy with a passion for innovation, and he’s doing it at a time when the world needs smarter, more fast solutions.

Long story short, Joey’s one of those guys who’s been around the block, learned what works, and now he’s out here changing the game. No cap.
