About Me

Serial entrepreneur, Business Executor, and builder based in Toronto.

Toronto-based serial entrepreneur with 10+ years across software, hardware, and services. I started at 13 with a motorcycle brokerage, then moved through blockchain, enterprise sales, and founding high-growth ventures. I'm a Business Executor: I turn ideas into operating companies through hands-on execution, and I advocate for violence prevention and community safety.
