Over the years, he has founded several companies and continues to invest both his time and resources into startups and early-stage platforms. His leadership has taken him to nearly every corner of the United States, though today, he enjoys a bi-coastal lifestyle, splitting his time between the vibrant energy of Cabo San Lucas, BCS, and an enthusiastically vigorous outdoor lifestyle and the serene beauty of Boise, Idaho, where he lives with his wife and daughter.

Empowering youth with disabilities and providing support to underprivileged communities. His dedication to giving back is as much a part of his identity as his business acumen.
