2026 — now · live

A relationship manager built to keep a network alive. Contacts settle into rings by closeness, shift with recency, and surface the one person worth reaching out to next. it remembers the context, so following up never starts from a blank page.

UniformPass.

2026 — now · live

A resale marketplace for private-school uniforms. Parents buy and sell school by school. no shipping, no fees. The real moat is concierge consignment: we pick up a pile, list it, sell it, and pay the owner half the profit.

rise & invest.

2024 — now · live

The education your school never offered. Three tracks (college counseling, plus 1:1 and group master classes) and twelve courses across college prep, career and finance, and AI. I teach the version I wish I'd had.

"Most people follow the path in front of them. Rise is the decision to go further. Invest is what that actually takes."

No. 01

you can outwork talent. you cannot outwork conviction.

No. 02

shipping ugly is a form of respect ... the user gets it sooner.

No. 03

the world needs more people who text first.

quit piano lessons in first grade to teach myself by ear. still visualize chords as shapes.
cold dm'd other freshmen on linkedin to make new friends. it worked.
