Since 2022, I have been managing a team that builds software for the segment of service providers focused on the preservation of exterior building assets.

I come from a family of successful blue collar entrepreneurs.

I have spent most of my life between the office, the job site, the machine yard, the trail, the kitchen table, and the keyboard.

I write weekly. My audience is my kids. They barely read my posts.

I write to leave behind useful judgment, not content.

More than 1,200 unique visitors a month from around the globe read my random thoughts.

Some of my most popular posts are on youth soccer.

I am usually drawn to people who build, repair, coach, teach, carry, dig, sell, serve, or solve.

I believe practical people are wildly underrated.

I have been using AI daily since early 2023.

I have built too many companies. I have sold some.

I have logged 32,000+ miles hiking.

I manage 90 acres of trails.

I have excellent backhoe skills.

I don’t do politics.

I still own a junkyard.

I have tremendous appreciation for the Catholic community my family is part of.

Elevator pitch: blue collar management + software development + AI practice + espresso.

I take random phone calls. Text me first.
