With over 20 years of experience developing world-class technology organizations from scratch, I have created 5 startup companies that have all done the impossible and grown into multi-million dollar annual performers with over 100 million dollars in revenue earned. My goal is to better those around me and help my customers and coworkers grow financially and professionally.My greatest strength is spotting emerging markets and scaling growth from them. I actively listen to customers to truly understand and identify market opportunities. Our customers tell us what they need, so we must rapidly create products to fill each need. Growth always follows when products are created based on needs in a market.I excel at building great teams with a strong corporate culture that makes everyone feel included. By doing so, my teams are instilled with a continuous desire to improve and collaboratively grow the business. Winning is a team sport!I recently founded Law Ruler Software, a SaaS enterprise software company that built a CRM platform for the legal/law firm market. Law Ruler was immensely successful and experienced high-velocity growth over seven years before it was acquired by a private equity firm to scale the company's success even further.Before Law Ruler, I built three (3) other startup companies from scratch into multi-million dollar businesses. - Florida Micro: In the earlier part of my professional career, from 2002 until late 2011, I built Florida Micro, a technology company from a garage-based 1-person startup into a publicly-traded company with over $36 million in annual revenue that was ranked in the top 3% of IT companies in North America within its category.- IT Strategies Group (ITSG): I co-founded and developed this concept from a startup into a highly profitable, multi-million dollar entity focused on the legal, accounting, and insurance markets. The Oil Claim Calculator became the #1 software solution for the largest legal matter in the history of the United States, the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill, and was used to help victims successfully file over 3 Billion Dollars in BP claims. - Poker Pro Media: Started this as a hobby business while playing Texas Hold Em Poker in my free time and grew it into a multi-million dollar entity. While playing at poker tournaments, I realized that there was no strong media presence for players and advertisers and sought to create one. When I exited the business, the circulation was half of Forbes magazine, and the business was expanded internationally throughout Europe.
