I’m a tenth-generation local, San Jose founder's descendant, who traded my carpentry tools for the chaos of Silicon Valley. Co-creating 10 startups with brilliant teams has been equally challenging and rewarding. We've bootstrapped SaaS to $10M+ ARR scaling to a $28.6M Series A, patented ATTN.LIVE's “Attention Engine”, and launched a digital-asset community that reached a nine-figure market cap within six days. Whether lecturing at universities or advising platforms with a billion downloads, I bridge innovation with compliance: Capital ↔ Code ↔ Congress. Long before boardrooms, I found my purpose in the 4,000+ volunteer hours I logged with NGOs. Today, I’m grateful to have a seat at the table where the future is created. When provided with this influence, my prayer is to be a leader known for his joy, love, hope, and courage.

INFLUENCE
• Recognition: Honored by the Global AI Council with the U.S. President’s Lifetime Achievement Award for 4,000+ hours of volunteer work with NGOs like World Vision, International Justice Mission and Salvation Army.
• Attention: Primetime TV interviews. 100+ keynotes at major tech events on four continents. Hosted digital communities reaching millions through X.com Spaces. 1,000+ live-streamed podcasts with industry leaders.
• Lectures: University of San Francisco, Indiana University, City College of San Francisco, Central New Mexico College, Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University (Ukraine), and the University of Nicosia (Cyprus).
• Advisory: Strategic advisor to organizations including Tricon (a BlackRock company), Female Founder School, United Nations, Hoverboard.com, Pro Athletes Outreach, Teen Challenge, Bethel, Bible.com (1B+ downloads).
• Entrepreneur in Residence EiR: CCSF’s Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation; Runway in Twitter’s HQ.

EXPERTISE
• Innovation – Venture building, community tokenization, product development.
• Diplomacy – Dealmaking, vision casting, recruiting, creative strategy, public speaking.
• Specialty – AI, Web3, enterprise infrastructure, consumer software, IP, regulation, compliance, policy.
• Versatility – Fluent in the dialects of the three global power centers: Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and D.C.

SUMMARY
Dealmaker with uncompromising ethics and courage. A “Swiss Army” executive operating at the intersection of Capital ↔ Code ↔ Congress. Ten-time co-founder with expertise in AI, Web3, enterprise infrastructure, consumer software, IP, regulation, compliance, and policy. Bootstrapped a SaaS platform to $10M+ ARR before Series A with nine-figure valuation. Led a digital-asset community launch reaching a nine‑figure token market cap in 6 days. C-suite board-ready leader with a trusted network of executives, celebrities, and senior policymakers.
