About Doug
I’m the founder of Dog House Ventures LLC, a Connecticut-based software company focused on building practical, evidence-first technology.
My background spans commercial printing and operations, law enforcement, retail business ownership, and entrepreneurship. Those experiences taught me the value of accountability, clear systems, reliable records, and making decisions based on evidence rather than assumptions.
Today, I’m building Doghouse, an AI-assisted business operating system designed around human authority and governed decision-making, along with Investment Vault, a financial-document organization platform designed to help investors reconstruct and understand years of scattered investment history.
I’m a hands-on founder building from lived experience, with a focus on creating technology that gives people greater control, clarity, and confidence rather than replacing human judgment.
