Operator.
Welcome. I'm glad you're here. After 26 years in business, 13 years as an entrepreneur, 2 successful exits and many lessons learned I'm giving back the best way I know how - operating, creating and guiding.
Operator - battle tested, proven results.
2x exit
Having led 2 revenue organizations to inc.'s top 75 and founded 2 companies that scaled and exited, me and my team will work hands on in your business to drive desired outcomes.
Guide - paying it forward, helping where needed.
Onward
Many people throughout my career helped me along the way. This is my chance to do the same for others. If you're stuck, let's talk and see how I can help.
I know what I know and know what I don't. Operating and growing $2-50M businesses is what I know well.
Tailored Strategies
My approach is simple. Tell me where you are, tell me where you want to go and I'll tell you if we can get there.

Frequently asked questions
01
What services do you offer?
From fully functioning done for you revenue organization design and operations to on-demand co-founder support. I primarily work with small to medium size businesses that are looking to grow gracefully, profitably and quickly.
02
How can I contact you?
You can reach me through the form on the site, on the socials, via text at 310.426.0472 or carrier pigeon. Whatever works for you.
03
What is your approach?
My approach is fairly simple. You tell me where you are today and where you're trying to go. I tell you if I can help you get there and if we would work well together. I only work with people I'm philosophically aligned with. The tactics will be different for each business as each business is unique.
04
Do you offer workshops?
Yes, sometimes, but I find workshops to be less effective long term. You may get a short term bump, but without ongoing leadership and support most teams revert back to the mean.
05
What industries do you serve?
I'm industry agnostic. I have experience in a variety of industries, both inside and outside of tech. My primary criteria is size of business, expectations around growth, budget and how coachable the internal teams are.
