About
I was raised in Falmouth, Massachusetts — a small town on the shores of Cape Cod, rich in tradition, resilience, and history. My family has lived there for five generations, grounded in working-class values and defined by hard work, integrity, and self-reliance. From an early age, I was taught that nothing replaces discipline, initiative, and independent thinking.
By twelve, I had launched my first business — an early lesson in the value of a dollar, personal responsibility, and the freedom that comes from financial independence. That entrepreneurial mindset has shaped every chapter of my life since.
I went on to attend The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, earning a Bachelor of Science in Economics with a dual focus in finance and entrepreneurial management. Since then, I’ve built a career as an entrepreneur, investor, and operator — founding and growing companies that solve real problems, create lasting consumer value, and deliver measurable results.
My approach is straightforward: identify high-reward opportunities, apply first-principles thinking to understand true needs, and execute with relentless precision and perfectionism.
I don’t believe in luck. I believe success is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. I operate by clear principles, hold myself to uncompromising standards, and take deep pride in the caliber of people I surround myself with. I only work with those who think independently, act decisively, and lead with integrity and excellence.
This site offers a transparent view into who I am, how I operate, and the exceptional ventures I’ve built alongside some of the most talented individuals I know.

Core Principles
These 10 principles define how I operate — in business, leadership, and life. They guide every decision, relationship, and venture I engage with.
01
Do What is Right Because it is Right
Always act with integrity and make decisions based on a moral compass, regardless of circumstances or consequences. Upholding this consistently builds trust — personally and professionally.
03
The Power of Thank You
A simple "thank you" strengthens relationships, builds loyalty, and creates a culture of appreciation that drives results.
05
Business is Always Personal
Every interaction matters. People work with those they like, trust, and respect. Relationships drive outcomes.
07
Surround Yourself with the Highest Quality People You Can
Your network shapes your future. Seek out people who challenge, inspire, and elevate you.
09
Make Yourself Redundant
Build teams, train leaders, and design systems so effective they don't need you. That's real leadership.
02
Take Personal Accountability for All That You Do
Own your actions and outcomes. Success or failure, accountability ensures growth, earns respect, and defines real leadership.
04
Focus on Solutions, Not Blame
When challenges arise, focus on fixing them — not pointing fingers. Progress depends on solutions, not excuses.
06
Never Pass Up a Good Thing
Opportunities are fleeting. If it aligns with your values and vision — take it.
08
Never Let Anyone Waste Your Time
Time is your most valuable resource. Protect it. Spend it only where it creates value.
10
Earn Your PhD in Common Sense
Sound judgment beats theory. Apply practical, grounded thinking to complex problems. It's your most reliable skill.
Philanthropy
