I've worked since 16, while playing high school football and running track. Nobody handed me a playbook, so I learned by doing. Cane Rosso turned me down as a server and offered me a busser job. I said, "Great, I'll serve next door." They went and got the GM, and the GM hired me. In under a year I went from server to front-of-house manager: running the floor, coordinating the servers, the bar and online orders, then end-of-night checkouts and the P&L updates. I was 19, managing people twice my age.
By then I was already in sales, knocking doors for Vivint. Then a winter at Moonlight Basin in Big Sky, Montana: a private members' ski lodge inside an exclusive private resort, with $10 million condos right above us. The restaurant held a high bar, but the members were nothing like I expected: laid back, well traveled, happy to share what they'd learned. I don't hold back telling my story, so I learned a lot. What I heard most from members: "I wish my kids had your perspective." They offered me the Assistant GM job. I turned it down to go deeper into marketing and sales.
The whole time, I was teaching myself digital marketing on the side, thousands of hours of it before I ever took a client. I took in any and everything I could find, and what stuck was what I actually did. I still work that way. I do the research, line it up with what I've already done and what I know, then ship a solid MVP and build on it. Then I growth hack it: test what works and what doesn't, double down on what does, and learn the rest as I go.
Then Fiverr and Upwork, then marketing contracting under the name New Age Adaptation, which I founded as a company on January 20, 2025. That first year was all trial and error, and I got burned a few times. Typical first business. At the end of 2025 I went inside College Hunks Hauling Junk & Moving, at their DFW location. Three promotions in under four months, up to running sales. I saw the opening and built out their sales lead system: the email and text automations for inbound leads, the process for in-person estimates, the stages on the lead board and the business logic behind all of it. I got to see how a $200M+ franchise runs its business, and I saw the software underneath it. It all clicked the first day I was there: a business is systems, processes and software, and above all the quality and efficiency of its work, whatever it does. Get those right and you can do anything.
Early in 2026 I took a sales role at a digital marketing company, the kind of place I had always wanted to work. I walked in with three things they didn't have: AI coding agents, GoHighLevel and a productized way to sell it. In two weeks I re-orchestrated how the business sold, and I turned their manual sales research and process into an automated system. They wanted me running ads instead. I left. It proved I know what I'm doing, and that I should be doing it for myself.
Where am I at? Years deep in business development and early in my engineering career, all of it self-taught. I know enough to grow real businesses and ship real software. I also know how much I don't know yet. Both are true, and that's what keeps me learning. I pick things up fast and connect ideas across fields, even ones I'm new to. So I'll learn on the spot and give you my honest take from everything I've done, or just listen and learn.
People tell me I'm a lot of energy. I'll take it. I love pushing people: friends, clients, someone I met that week. Tell me what you want to do and I'm going to ask what's stopping you, then help you take the first step. Watching someone go from talking about it to doing it is one of my favorite things. Momentum is contagious, and I like being where it starts.
Here's why I do this. The gap between wanting to and doing is where most people stay stuck. I sat in it too, with the analysis paralysis and the fear, until I just started. I want to help people like me get across it. That's what EverMorrow is for, and why I'll teach AI to anyone from wherever they're at.
Bet on yourself. Help others win. Leave it better than you found it.
The goal is big: a $100M portfolio by 30 (I'm 24), and to see the world from every angle, every culture, every experience it has to offer. I want to connect people, businesses and ideas, genuinely, so everyone gets more opportunity out of it. I love scaling life and business, and I want to see how far it goes. Location freedom is how I get there: build the system once, run it from anywhere in the world, on my own terms.
