About

I am a serial Founder who just got off a five-year stint as a Partner at a boutique Management Consulting company. As an Angel Investor and LP in active AI Funds it’s hard to ignore the market wave that LLMs have spawned. This year I recognize the power and impact that Agentic Engineering technology is going to have on the software engineering and overall business operations. So I started a Venture Studio to prove out what Agentic Engineering can do in the hands of an experienced operator and went a little nuts. To open up the new Venture Studio I launched one company a day in May and lived to tell the tale.

Saw a TikTok Friday, coded Saturday, polished Sunday, App Store Monday

I started a venture studio in May around the Velocity Process for Agentic Engineering and rapid company launches.

Here an example of what we can code up in a weekend and launch.

Reelpass - Record it. Pass it. Get it back edited.

Record it. Pass it. Get it back edited. The native-capture creator + editor marketplace. Record at full quality on your phone, then hand the raw footage to a real editor — without exporting, compressing, or DMing a single file. It's already in the app. You shoot in 4K, then export, compress, and upload — and hand your editor a shadow of what you actually captured. The pipeline is the product, and right now it's held together with cloud links and lost messages.
