I'm a big idea simplifier who is humbled by being able to connect with you.
I began in the poverty of a two-bedroom home, with big dreams and low self esteem. And curiosity as my lone asset. Borrowing $1,000 from my Mom I founded and took one business to 400 employees by the time I was 26. I built another company into 6 states. At the same time I led a nonprofit expansion into 53 countries and added over a thousand staff. All in my 20’s and 30’s.
On the tough outside, I’m a shoot first, ask questions later type of guy. But inside, I still feel that imposter syndrome of a little boy growing up without any hope.
