From media buying to AI cameras, I’ve built, scaled, and pivoted my way through tech and startups. Now bootstrapping the future of skateboarding - one prototype at a time.
Bio
I am a proud USC Trojan with extensive expertise in programmatic marketing and media trading. Throughout my career, I have strategized and executed high-value media buys for Fortune 1000, 500, and 100 companies, managing multimillion-dollar budgets and delivering 8- to 9-figure ROAS.
Companies Founded - ALL "one man businesses"
2010-2011: Plan B Media – Raised $20K to launch YourSpot.com, a nightlife discovery platform similar to Yelp. Despite early traction, the venture was unsuccessful.
2013-2015: ROKITONE – Bootstrapped an ad network, generating $500K in revenue before contracts expired and the business was phased out.
2015-2024: Rocket One – Founded and scaled a managed programmatic buying platform to $15M in revenue. Exited after contracts expired.
2021-Present: KICKFLP – Developing AI-powered cameras and mobile/CTV applications for skateboarding. Self-funded, pre-revenue, with working prototypes in place.
My journey reflects a deep passion for innovation, entrepreneurship, and leveraging off the-shelf technology to drive growth and make peoples life easier.
