Systems architect and SMB operator. 'Customer Zero' solving the small business cash-flow crisis I lived through.

believe execution is the only credential that matters.

I'm a 23-year-old systems architect, and my journey here began as "Customer Zero". To pay for school, I launched an e-commerce startup. It failed—not from a lack of hustle, but because I ran head-first into the existential cash-flow bottlenecks that make or break most small businesses. That experience showed me firsthand that for new entrepreneurs, the traditional capital model itself is the problem.

I am building MIDLGRND to solve the problem I lived. We build the "shovel": a platform that lets any business turn its brand and future capacity into liquid, inflation-resilient working capital. By issuing their own "Commerce Token" (CTK), a business gets immediate cash float, and our platform gives them the treasury tools to manage that new asset for long-term stability and gain—all protected by built-in risk controls like the Dynamic Redemption Peg (DRP) to cap liability.

My "hybrid founder advantage" comes from this dual experience. My failed startup gave me the "why." My current role as acting COO inside a successful $4M federal logistics contractor—managing complex B2B airport installs and IT systems—gives me the "how." It's my incubation lab for understanding high-stakes operations, procurement cycles, and systems architecture at scale. I am 100% committed to MIDLGRND's success.

The U.S. small business economy represents over $40 trillion in annual revenue, yet it's running on inefficient capital and a $234 billion gift card market that's illiquid and traps consumer value.

We are the 'picks and shovels' to tokenize this. Our platform lets any business launch a 'Community IPO' for non-dilutive capital by tokenizing their store credit.

We're not speculators; we're infrastructure. We are building the compliant rails to service a $40 trillion transaction market. Our revenue comes from SaaS tooling and exchange fees. Our 'compliance-first' Acropolis exchange is the trusted moat that will win this entire, untapped category.
