What Makes Me Worth Your Time in a World Full of "Experts"?

In a world drowning in recycled advice from self-proclaimed gurus, why should you care what I have to say?

Because I’ve walked the same gritty path you’re on—starting from nothing, grinding through the chaos of building a business from the ground up.

Unlike most, I took a tiny, scrappy startup without a dime of outside funding, and built it into the dominant force in a highly competitive software niche, outmaneuvering multi-billion-dollar giants. Those battle-tested strategies were not borrowed from a playbook—but forged in the trenches—and they now fuel the exclusive mentorship you’ll explore in Momentum. They’re the kind of insights that could ignite the breakthroughs you need.

From Survival to Strategy

My dad abandoned our family when I was a kid. Mom worked two jobs to support us, leaving me to fend for myself. That kind of upheaval forges a raw edge of resourcefulness that stays with you. That grit and resilience hardwired me to think differently from a young age—spotting trends overlooked by others and realizing as a child there wasn’t a box to “think outside of” in the first place.

Those early experiences—carving my own path—shaped me into a master strategist who played chess in a world of checkers, bootstrapping a $50 million company and outmaneuvering corporate giants. I'll share the hard-won perspectives that propelled my success in Momentum, revealing how to explore unconventional approaches for your business. Through real-world examples from my journey, you’ll discover ways to break through roadblocks, identify nonobvious opportunities, and ignite the kind of momentum that could transform the track you’re on—no fluff, no contrived, cookie-cutter recipe.*

Thinking Differently: The Strategic Perspectives That Fueled My Success

I’ve never had a mentor or followed playbooks. My edge came from combining behavioral psychology, cultural anthropology, military strategy, asymmetrical thinking, and guerrilla methods to outmaneuver competitors and seize opportunities the industry giants were too blind (or too arrogant) to see. In Momentum, you’ll discover these hard-won strategic perspectives—and mold them to fit your unique business; they’re not one-size-fits-all.

Through real-world examples from my journey to $50 million in annual revenue, you’ll explore ways to tackle your specific challenges, see untapped potential in your market, and shift from “stuck” to strategic momentum. It’s about seeing your business through a fresh, unconventional lens—one that could spark breakthroughs tailored to your path.

The Hard Evidence: My Verified Achievements & Accolades

Bootstrapped a tiny startup to $50 million in annual revenue—with no bank loan, no line of credit, and no funding from anyone.

Sold it for $71 million to a publicly traded software company in L.A. (Reported by The Wall Street Journal—hard proof, not hype.)

Ranked on the Inc. 500 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies—because results speak louder than promises.

International MBA programs have featured my strategies as a real-world case study, teaching future leaders how I outperformed industry giants.

Selected to be an official IBM Futurist in 2015 to provide thought leadership and help imagine the impact of technology innovations on commerce in the year 2025.

Tired of Spinning Your Wheels Without Traction?

I know the relentless hustle of building a business from nothing, because I’ve been there—but I cracked the code with strategies that sparked immediate traction and led to a $71 million exit. If you’re pouring your heart into your business and still coming up short, I’m here to share the perspectives that turned my grind into real momentum.

"I’ve tried every so-called ‘proven’ system... yet I’m still working all the time, not gaining the traction I need."

"I’m fed up with useless, surface-level advice—show me how to drive real results."

"Off-the-shelf solutions don’t work. I want to know how to turn all my hard work into real results."

If these hit home, Momentum is your no-nonsense war room—where serious builders can explore untapped angles, gain crystal-clear direction, and move forward with purpose and power. No guesswork; just strategic moves that could transform how you operate.
