FOUNDER / BUILDERSaaS from scratch

The short version

More than a job title.

My career has moved through sales, leadership, business ownership and software because I keep following the same question: what is actually stopping this from working better?

01 / SELL

Revenue is familiar territory.

Full-cycle selling, discovery, negotiation, account growth and high-ticket solutions — backed by years of quota-carrying performance.

02 / OPERATE

I've sat on the other side of the table.

Building businesses changes how you sell. Payroll, customers, margins, systems and growth stop being abstractions.

03 / BUILD

When the tool didn't exist, I built it.

HandsOffHQ started as an operating problem inside a service business and became a working AI-enabled SaaS workflow platform.

A salesperson at heart. A builder by trade.

I’ve spent my career learning how people make decisions, how businesses grow, and where good systems break down.

That curiosity has taken me from sales and leadership into business ownership, workflow design, AI, automation and software. I tend to follow problems until I understand them well enough to do something about them.

Proof of work

HandsOffHQ

I didn't build software because I wanted “developer” on a résumé. I built it because I understood the business problem well enough to know what the software needed to do.

Less chaos. Better decisions. More owner visibility.

HandsOffHQ standardizes the messy situations that consume service-business owners: damage claims, customer incidents, cancellations and internal issues. Managers get guided workflows; owners get visibility, escalation controls and pattern detection.

My role: identified the problem, defined the product, designed the workflows and user experience, built the application and iterated against real operational pain points.

Career arc

I don't just sell solutions. I build relationships, solve problems and create growth that lasts.

How I work

CRM, AI and automation are not résumé keywords to me. They are tools I use to sell better, build faster and remove unnecessary work.
