  founder

  speed, chaos, and shifting priorities

  while staying sharp.
• Someone who talks in

  metrics

  , not moods.
• Someone who understands Shopify as a

  behavior engine

No training wheels.

What You Get

  entire D2C growth stack

The Filter

Let's be brutally honest:

• If you want comfort, skip.
• If you need reassurance, skip.
• If you want a checklist-style BD job, skip.

But if you feel that pull in your gut

chaos worth betting on

then the seat is open.

It won't stay open.
