Open to full-time roles

I turn growth problems into operating systems.

13 years building the growth and operating systems behind venture-backed startups and enterprises. $50M+ in incremental revenue across 100+ companies.

I built and ran the 25-person delivery org behind that work, and partner with CEOs and boards on monetization, planning, and margin.

The architecture behind the other two

WAT Framework

Agent systems fail when one model has to decide and execute at the same time. WAT splits those jobs across three layers.

Layer 1
Workflows
Markdown SOPs holding the institutional knowledge. 25+ running live.
Layer 2
Agents
Make the judgment calls, sequence the work, recover from failures.
Layer 3
Tools
Deterministic Python. Same input, same output, every time.
59% End-to-end success

Five chained steps at 90% accuracy give 59% success. That is why judgment goes to the model and execution goes to code.

Compound CRO platform

Six-agent pipeline carrying a client site from intake to a live experiment. Multi-tenant, with authentication and billing.
