About The Guest
I’m an entrepreneurial builder. Over the past 20+ years, I’ve founded seven companies, successfully exited six—including two acquired by publicly traded firms. I’ve launched products, scaled businesses, and guided strategic exits, always aiming to make things simpler, clearer, and more effective.My experience spans technology, AI, manufacturing, consumer products, and digital strategy. I've worked closely with founders and business leaders to achieve real product-market fit, launch smarter go-to-market strategies, and successfully navigate high-value exits.After collaborating with top creators of leading AI orchestration platforms, I realized traditional methods (Agile, Lean, Six Sigma, BPM) simply weren’t built for today’s AI-driven speed and complexity. This insight led me to co-create AI First Principles and the WISER Method, practical frameworks combining AI, Design Thinking, and entrepreneurial strategy to simplify business growth, intelligently automate operations, and position companies for strategic exits.Today, I partner with business leaders to apply these frameworks practically, helping them operate smarter, scale faster, and sell strategically. I also host the How to Founder podcast, sharing practical, no-nonsense strategies that entrepreneurs can immediately put to work.I’m not here to theorize—I build what works, help scale what matters, and ensure business owners exit successfully when the time comes.
