Helping Seed-to-Series A founders turn scattered tactics into a predictable revenue engine that scales without them
Co-Founder at MinionArts

Areas of expertise

I help seed to Series A founders who have a product that works but no reliable way to turn strangers into paying customers.

  • Scattered acquisition tactics that burn budget without building a system
  • Agency relationships that consume spend but fail to move the needle
  • Founder-led sales that creates a ceiling the business cannot grow past
  • A pipeline that spikes and stalls instead of compounding predictably
  • Growth that depends on the founder personally rather than running on process
  • No clear view of what is working, what to cut, and where to double down

I take ownership of the entire funnel - from first click to closed revenue - and build a growth engine that runs without constant supervision.

About Me

I build growth engines for seed to Series A founders who have a product that works but no reliable way to turn strangers into paying customers.

I own the full funnel - paid, organic, email, SEO, and outbound - as a single operator, with no agency layer and no headcount required. The result is a system you can see, measure, and trust. Acquisition stops being a series of one-off campaigns and starts compounding.

Your pipeline becomes predictable, spend gets efficient, and the growth function stops depending on you personally.

I have driven over $1M in closed recurring enterprise revenue, scaled an AI product from zero to 20,000 users solo, and managed $95K in monthly paid media at a 6.7x ROAS.

My cold outbound converted 700 prospects into 70 meetings and 10 closed customers.

I also co-founded MinionArts, where I apply the same systems thinking to AI filmmaking and creative infrastructure.

Available for one-off sessions, project-based work, workshops or group sessions, and ongoing retainers

Common Questions

I work with seed to Series A founders who have a product that works but no reliable way to acquire customers at scale. The typical situation is scattered tactics, an agency that is not moving the needle, or founder-led sales that cannot grow beyond the founder. I come in as a single operator who owns the entire funnel, from first click to closed revenue, and builds a growth engine that runs without constant supervision.

This is a good fit for early-stage founders who need full-funnel growth ownership across paid, organic, email, SEO, and outbound, but do not want to hire an agency or build a full in-house team yet. If you have product-market fit and need acquisition to become a system rather than a series of guesses, this is built for you.

Acquisition becomes measurable and predictable instead of reactive. Spend gets more efficient, pipeline becomes consistent, and revenue compounds rather than spiking and stalling. Equally important, the growth function stops depending on you personally and starts running on process, so you get your time back.

I drove over one million dollars in closed recurring enterprise revenue through a structured email and acquisition program, hitting a 40 percent click-through rate, roughly eight times the industry benchmark. I scaled an early-stage AI product from zero to 20,000 users as the sole growth owner and built a cold outbound engine that converted 700 prospects into 70 meetings and 10 closed customers. I have also managed over 95 thousand dollars in monthly paid media at a peak 6.7x ROAS and grew a domain from 40 to 68 authority with over 1,000 keywords ranked.

Engagements are scoped around outcomes, not hours. I work as an embedded growth operator with no agency layer in between, which means I am directly building, testing, and optimizing the system. We start by diagnosing where the funnel is broken, then build toward a growth engine you can see, measure, and trust.
