I work with startup founders as their fractional CTO and coach agency owners through the growth problems no one prepares you for.

What I Do

Two ways we work together

01

Fractional CTO

You have a product gaining traction but no one to own the technical vision. I join your team part-time to set architecture, hire your first engineers, and make sure the tech doesn't become the bottleneck.

  • Technical strategy & architecture
  • Engineering team building
  • Product & technology roadmap
  • Due diligence & investor readiness
02

Agency Mentor

Most tech agencies stay stuck at the same revenue because the founder is still doing everything. I help you build the positioning, processes, and team structure that let you grow without burning out.

  • Positioning & go-to-market
  • Delivery & operations
  • Team structure & scaling
  • Client acquisition & retention

About

A decade of building—now I help others do it faster

I've spent 10+ years as an engineer, product leader, and CTO—building teams, shipping products, and learning what works the hard way. I run Speedrun Studio, a tech agency, and created Selling Engineering, a course that teaches developers how to sell.

Now I use that experience to help founders make better technical decisions and agency owners escape the feast-or-famine cycle. Architecture, hiring, positioning, operations—I've made the mistakes so you don't have to.
