I fix what others only talk about.
Business Troubleshooter
No jargon. No frameworks. No slide decks.
Just first-principles thinking, clarity, and hands-on execution.
If your business is stuck, stagnant, or overwhelmed,
I help you find the truth — and fix what matters.
No consultants
No theater
No MBA BS
Most consultants give you a vocabulary, not a solution.
Most frameworks describe your problems, they don’t fix them.
Most slide decks sit on shelves.
Most “transformation initiatives” collapse on day two.
I do the opposite.
I step inside the business,
find what’s real,
and fix it.
Not from a conference room.
Not from a deck.
From the inside.
Where the work actually happens.
I troubleshoot companies.
I diagnose what’s holding your business back, then fix it with clarity, structure, and execution.
I deliver:
Clear diagnosis of root problems
Stabilized operations
Aligned teams and decision flows
Improved margins and pricing discipline
Simplified processes and reduced chaos
Real accountability and communication clarity
A business that works without constant firefighting
A path for growth, transition, or sale
Perspective on me:
Observe -> Imagine -> Plan-> Execute ¬
repeat
This simple but effective design mindset lead me to success in a myriad of professional challenges in management in technology, architecture, sales, marketing, and investment. With this mindset I accomplished a few things while wearing a few hats:
Self-Taught Coder/Hacker,
Architect of awarded Buildings,
Inventor of Technology (patents),
Startup Entrepreneur (multiple),
VP of Delivery,
Expert in Investment Due-Diligence,
CAD drafter and 3D Modeler/Animator/VR,
CTO and Software Architect,
Design College Professor,
AI Researcher,
Sales and Biz Dev VP,
Nonprofit Director of Product, and
CEO.
I roll up my sleeves, recruit, lead, and won’t relent until goals are reached. It’s a lot to grapple with, but if you want one take away may it be that I am Resourceful.
Designed this.
