I founded Fractal with it's current owners in 2016. From then to 2023 it became Ovyl, a seven figure agency with work for SmileDirect, Vanderbilt, Amazon, and more. Before my exit I was responsible for managing our growth, finances, branding, marketing, and operations for our first six years. During that time we averaged just over 30% annual revenue growth and retained 100% of our employees. I loved my time there and gained a lot of skills which propel me to this day.

I taught myself to code so to keep myself engaged while working a boring job. I used my new skills to automate more than half the job and also started building business websites for friends and coworkers.
