About Me

Serial Entrepreneur. I've been able to learn a great deal over the last couple years pursuing different passions (AKA startups) as a young, twenty-something web entrepreneur. Fortunately, one "brainchild" stood out as a tremendous opportunity that I could not afford to pass up. Taking the advice of Guy Kawasaki, Rank 'em (www.gorankem.com) is my outlet to "change the world."

Outside of my commitment to seeing the Rank 'em vision come to fruition, I want to share the knowledge I have acquired through my experiences with originating different companies to benefit others that want to follow their dreams & passions.

Work History
