What I'm about

Four things I build my life around.

Business

Business & freedom

Building income and a life on your own terms. Freedom is built, not handed to you.

Mindset

Mindset & abundance

Brain power is the main power. There's enough out here for everyone, including you.

AI

AI & vibe coding

Building real software with Claude Code, learned from scratch. The skill that changes the game.

The full life

The full life

Strength, music, and showing up real. I try to live what I teach, not just talk it.

Built in public

What I'm building now.

Real businesses and systems, built with AI. The same kind of systems I build for clients.

Live

Stackivate

Financial education tools, built with AI, that fit the way you invest. The first business I built this way. stackivate.com

First client delivered

Automated Business Innovations

Private AI agents built for other businesses. The first paid client build went out in September, and more work has followed.

Version 1 built

My personal AI assistant

It keeps track of what it ran and what it needs from me, so running four businesses doesn't depend on my memory.

My story

I started before I was ready, and I didn't stop.

15 years of building businesses, months of learning to build with AI full time, a stubborn belief that there's enough out here for everyone, and the willingness to build in public even when it's messy.

None of it was easy, and none of it happened fast. That's the point of doing it where you can watch: you see what it really takes.

Want this system in your business?

You built something real. Getting it seen is the wall. In The Marketing System Install I install the same AI marketing system that runs my own businesses (my personal brand and Stackivate), set up around yours, one on one, and then you own it.

Founding offer

The Marketing System Install

The marketing employees I run live, installed on your business. Yours to keep.

$5,000 / list price

Founding clients pay well under that. 30 days of support after handoff. After that it runs on your own accounts, typically $25 to $50 a month.
