The Journey
BA Finance, BA Economics. Interned at Morgan Stanley and Scottrade.
Exposed to entrepreneurship.
Pivoted WHA into an ad network for outdoor enthusiast publishers. Traded impressions on Yahoo, Google, and major ad exchanges. Became Carbon Media Group.
Decided to never work for anyone else again.
Vintage drive-in movie theater speakers & memorabilia. Made in USA from original molds. Started with my father — drive-ins run deep in the family.
Rails consultancy. Built apps for clients, learned to code. Met Lancelot Carlson — the technical co-founder who'd help build HealPay.
Buried in student loans, searching for a model. Didn't hit revenue until 2014. Consumer-centric payments for collection firms — flexible payment options, discounts, settlements. Think BNPL for people in debt. $500M+ processed.
Co-founded with 3 others. Startup community — networking events, coworking tours, Hackers and Hustlers. Ran until everyone got deep in their own startups.
New beginnings. Growing HealPay, building what's next.
The trail doesn't end — it just finds new terrain.
