01 / About

BUILDER.
RUNNER.
MAKER.

Six years building scalable growth systems for SaaS companies. I co-founded DeFrame, an AI startup for art museums, then drove growth at ProfitWell through its $200M acquisition by Paddle. Most recently stepped into the Director of Growth role at AWeber. Also a TEDx speaker recognized for leadership and creativity.

The kind of person who builds things rather than just uses them.
