I work with founders, companies, and teams who have an idea and the budget to make it real: consulting, contracting, product building, growth, or rolling up my sleeves to actually ship it with you. If you've got something ambitious and the means to back it, I'm in. I don't just hand over ideas; I build.

AI products and automation, AI transformation, 0→1 product building, growth and go-to-market, and contracting gigs where I build alongside your team. I like the hands-on work. Strategy that ships, not slide decks.

B2B SaaS is my core, it's where I've spent most of my career. I've also built consumer products, and I love taking software into different industries: music, finance, marketing, consumer tech, and e-commerce. If you're building something ambitious in one of those spaces, I'm all ears.

Two things, every time: the team and the excitement around the project. I want to build with people I'd genuinely love to work with, on something we're both fired up about. A strong team plus a project that excites me beats almost anything else.

Yes. I'm open to building with the right person. I usually start by working on a project together, even a weekend build, to check the vibe and see how we work before committing to anything bigger. The best collaborations start small and real.

Absolutely. If you're interested in investing in any of my projects, get in touch. I'm always happy to talk to investors who want to back something early.

Yes. Conferences, podcasts, and events. I speak on AI automation and AI transformation, building and bootstrapping companies, growth marketing, and breaking into and growing in tech (great for student and early-career audiences). Remote or in person, I travel with no location constraints.

I do. Typically a hands-on, full-day workshop, around 4–5 hours for ~20 people, tailored to your team. Pricing usually runs $5,000–$10,000 depending on scope and customization.

Send me as much as you can: the event, the location, expected audience size, and the topics or talks you'd like me to cover. For for-profit events, include your speaking budget and whether you cover flights and accommodation (for anything outside San Francisco). The more context you give me, the faster I can say yes.

For events outside San Francisco, covering flights and accommodation is the baseline. Depending on the event, I'm happy to waive my speaking fee or donate it to charity. I've done that for charity events and hackathons.

Pricing and engagement minimums depend on the scope, so I keep them private. Reach out with the details and I'll share what makes sense. I don't take on free work (the exceptions are the occasional charity event or hackathon).

It depends on how we work together. If we're co-founding something, equity is the whole point. In an advisory role, I'll take equity. If your company can cover my fees, equity isn't required. And if you can't cover the full fees, I might do part cash and part equity. But there's always money involved. I don't work for free or for equity alone, the one exception being a true co-founder setup.

I personally read and reply to every message, usually within 24–48 hours.

Don't wait. Ping me on Instagram, X/Twitter, or LinkedIn. Reach out on as many channels as you can. Messages slip through, and a nudge always helps it rise to the top.
