Builder by instinct. Seller by trade. Technologist by obsession.

I've spent 12 years at the intersection of technology, entrepreneurship, and high-performance sales. From founding outdoor marketplaces and SaaS platforms to closing Fortune 1,000 enterprise deals, I build things that work and sell them to people who need them.

Based in Charleston, SC. Former Colorado local for 4 years. I fly fish the Florida Keys, ride dirt bikes through the mountains of Colorado and Utah, and snowboard wherever the vertical is biggest, most recently in Japan. My wife and 14-year-old red lab have been along for most of it.
