Help people improve
Automation, consulting, education, and charity, every business I build points at the same goal.
Creating compounding value for the people I serve, one venture at a time.
For twenty years I've watched brilliant founders burn out, beautiful companies stall, and operators trade their lives for outcomes that never arrive. Every business I build exists to change that pattern one person at a time, at scale.
Automation
Systems that remove friction and let operators focus on the work only they can do.
Consulting
One-on-one advisory that meets founders where they are and builds durable strategy.
Education
Frameworks, content, and community that compound knowledge across thousands of people.
Charity
Donating 10 % of profits every year to build schools for children who need them most.
Guiding principles
Compounding over heroics
Great businesses are built by systems that compound, not heroics that exhaust.
Operator-first
Strategy is downstream of execution. I serve the people in the arena.
Founders are humans
We protect the operator as fiercely as we protect the company.
Building schools, one at a time
I've committed to donating 10% of We Live to Build's profits every year to Pencils of Promise. The annual goal is $50,000: enough to build one complete school in Ghana, Guatemala, or Laos.
Campaign progress
Last updated: April 21, 2026
Pencils of Promise partners with communities in Ghana, Guatemala, and Laos to build safe, engaging schools combined with teacher coaching and clean water delivery. They don't parachute in and disappear; they show up consistently, just like great networking works.
Education is the ultimate compounding flywheel. One additional year of schooling increases lifetime earnings by 10 %. Girls who go to school are more likely to make their own life choices. Entire families are lifted out of poverty when a child learns to read.
Every founder who grows through this platform, every deal made from a connection built here, that compound effect is what makes this donation goal possible.
Why this matters
Build One School
Funds the construction of a complete, safe learning environment in Ghana, Guatemala, or Laos.
Teacher Training
One additional year of schooling increases lifetime earnings by 10 % on average.
Clean Water Access
Every school Pencils of Promise builds includes access to clean water for students.
Community Impact
Girls who finish school are more likely to make their own life choices and lift families out of poverty.
Why I'm doing this
Building a business is only meaningful if it creates value beyond the bottom line. The businesses I build are each a vehicle for the same outcome: helping people improve themselves, their companies, and their communities.
Automation removes friction. Consulting sharpens thinking. Education scales insight. And charity turns profit into something permanent: a school that will stand long after any of us are gone.
If you've gotten value from this platform, consider donating directly. Together we can build something that outlasts all of us.
