I have an absolute and undeniably strong distaste for the status quo. The words, "this is the way we've always done it," cause me to break out in hives. That visceral allergy, combined with my utilization of disruptive marketing and sales strategies, has helped me turn startups and small businesses into growth machines.Professionally, I'm pursuing strategies of competitive advantage by acquiring small businesses in old line industries (<$5M purchase price). I completed my first acquisition on March 29th, 2018 with an MRO supplier called Miller Industrial. And now, I'm developing a scalable acquisition model that blends interdisciplinary design, with technology, and private equity. Personally, I have a passion for studying the artists who excel in how they cook, how they draw, how they move, how they write, how they speak, how they sculpt, how they sing, how they lead, how they think, and how they work. Further down the road, I want to use my talents and success to develop and fund the dreams of young entrepreneurs all over the world.Unique Abilities: SarcasmDad JokesHistrionicsMarketing StrategySales ManagementData-Driven Decision MakingDesign ThinkingBusiness Model InnovationScalable System DesignSuccess Psychology CoachingMarketing and Sales CopywritingBusiness Strategy (built on optimizing for speed and orienting around the customer)
