MISSION-DRIVEN
storyteller + operator empathy.

I was born to teenage parents and grew up poor in a trailer near the shores of Lake Huron in Michigan.

I fought my way out of my adolescence and crashed into the world in my early 20’s. I built a small coffee business that still exists today and for the last 6.5 yrs I’ve been building a startup in the coffee hardware space as the sales leader.

The best decision I ever made was marrying my best friend and we have built a life that I could have only dreamed of.

No one outworks me & no one can slow down like me.

Slowing down. Taking a step back. Taking a deep breathe. Getting wisdom from advisors and counsel is a skill I cherish.
