OPERATOR · FOUNDER · GROWTH PARTNER
I built a $44M company with my own money. Now I build them with operators.
Since 2008 I've scaled sales teams, written the software they run on, and spent $22M acquiring customers. Chicago and Miami.
THE PATH
Eighteen years, and every piece explains the next one.
2008
Insurance
I started as an agent and found out I was better at building the team than working the book. I spent years scaling sales organizations and learning what actually makes a rep produce — which is almost never what the training manual says.
THEN
Software
The tools that industry needed didn't exist, so we built them. That became RouteGenius Hold Co. — AI integration, automated workflow, and custom systems for insurance agents, financial advisors, and operators.
MEANWHILE
Acquisition
I taught myself paid social because nobody was going to hand me the pipeline. No course, no agency, no mentor. Just spend, data, and years of being wrong in public until I wasn't.
MARCH 2020
Illinois Fence Company
I put all of it into one company, with my own capital and my name on the line. $44M in revenue over five years, built from nothing. Acquired in December 2025.
NOW
ScaleRev
Founding member. I bring what I learned into companies that are already proven and stuck under the founder. Since March 2020 our team has managed more than $22M in media across Meta and Google and built the demand, follow-up, and reporting systems behind $391M in revenue for partner companies.
WHAT I DO NOW
I don't consult.
I install the engine and run it with your team — demand, systems, technology, and the operating cadence that connects them. Compensation is tied to the revenue the work creates, because that's the only arrangement where our interests actually match.
Every engagement runs through ScaleRev. That's the entity, the team, and the accountability.

AWAY FROM THE DESK
The reason any of it matters.
I've been married to Natalie for eighteen years. We have two sons — Jeremiah, twelve, and Levi, ten — and a dog named Charlie who has never once been useful and is beloved anyway.
I work out of Chicago and Miami. The travel is worth it as long as I'm home for the things that matter, and I've gotten unreasonable about protecting those.
WHAT I BELIEVE ABOUT THIS WORK
Revenue is a promise to somebody's family, not a number on a dashboard.
Do what you said you'd do, on the day you said you'd do it.
Nothing you build is worth what it costs if you lose your home getting there.

Owners, referral partners, affiliates, creators and media all come through the same door. I read every message directly. If there's a credible path to build something together, I'll ask for a conversation.
