FOUNDER & CEO OF FOUNTAIN FORWARD - FOUNDER #SAMEHERE C-SUITE - CO-FOUNDER OF BOAT COUNT INVESTMENTS
I was born in Wisconsin, live in Houston and I love to build, invest in, and market small businesses! My passion is to share stories about business, mental health, friends, and personal development. I didn’t learn in a traditional manner, so I’m here documenting “lived experiences” to help you on your personal journey regardless of how you learn. Whether it’s helping you take calculated risks, avoiding unnecessary failure, or merely helping you think through your current situation, I love seeing people make the most pragmatic decision!
I am proud to lead a team of motivated individuals at Fountain Forward since 2011.

Beautiful People – Medellin Part III
My emotions were all over the map this week.
I felt proud, anxious, fearful, angry as hell, jealous, sympathetic, loving, greedy, and at peace. I probably missed some but those were the ones that came up as I was writing.
It was good to feel all of those emotions as they are pushing me back to center. I’m going to chalk it up to my mind and body attempting to calibrate.

Believe in Your Dreams
I was able to touch a lot of different projects this week with an overall focus on efficiency through technology. My quick 24 hour trip to Dallas was very successful and also enjoyable. I love the two clients I was fortunate to hang out with!
Because of where our industry is headed (at Fountain Forward) it’s necessary for me to get very educated on AI.
I’m not the best at learning via research and such. I struggle with my focus. AI is also moving very quickly and the amount of applications it has for our business grows by the day.
