About

I'm a fearless builder. Designer since age 13, repeat founder, first hire at Memberstack (YC S20) which has processed $180M+ in payments. Now building new ideas in public. Here's my story: - Started learning design at 13 - Freelanced in middle school and made my first $ online - Skipped high school and launched a design agency instead - Built my first startup in 2nd year of uni, failed and learned a lot - Became the first hire at a startup – scaled it to $1M+ ARR (Memberstack, YC S20) - Built a recruiting service to multiple 6-figures in revenue - Now: Engineer launching new products I love building and have a deep understanding across design, growth, and now ramping up on engineering. I've received 30+ awards and support from the Internet Society, Roddenberry Foundation, Government of Canada, EO, BCBusiness, and others. Outside of it, some other interests: - Helping others win. If I can help you, let me know how. - I workout daily, rain or shine. I'm a fitness nerd (recently ran a 50km ultra-marathon in 25 days of training) - Music. I play drums and love jamming with others. Please add a note if you'd like to connect. Follow along for candid updates.
