My Story

As an experienced founder, technologist, maker, thinker, and explorer, I approach work and play with passion and experimentation by utilizing what I have learned to deliver exceptional experiences that connect with people –  just like you.

Over the past two decades, since I created my first online media platform for my friends’ biking adventures, I have been obsessed with digital technology and innovation. I’m a passionate entrepreneur launching startup companies, a full-service agency, and a venture studio, delivering results for startups to multi-million-dollar global enterprises within the health, wellness, fashion, fintech, entertainment, and industrial sectors.

"Life Is Like Riding a Bicycle. To Keep Your Balance You Must Keep Moving"

- Albert Einstein

I am happily married to my wife, Cortney for the past decade and together since meeting in their High School Spanish class. We have recently welcomed my son to our family, along with our two dogs. Photography has always been my long-term passion and in 2018, I was promoted to my son’s staff photographer. I enjoy adventures and a cycling enthusiast from mountain biking the Sierra Nevada to my wife joining me for a 180-mile tour from Reno, Nevada to Chico, California being my most notable shared touring experience yet. I am based in Greater-Northern California and seek to make a meaningful difference daily. Additionally, I volunteer with Tahoe-Pyramid Trail and a Board of Advisor for The Frank N. Bender Center for Applied Logistics Management at Truckee Meadows Community College.
