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.

Sunday Setting

I felt like I was focused and wandering at the same time this week. I had this empty feeling during the middle of the week like I was searching for something. Something more? Idk. Something, that’s for sure.

America’s 250th in Denver

America's 250th anniversary. My first thought on the 4th of July was how much gratitude I had to be here, especially during this time period. There are a lot of feelings about America as a whole, both positive and negative, so I thought I’d take some time to look back on why we’re the greatest nation the world has ever seen. For many, America's "greatness" lies not in perfection, but in its unique ability to continuously self-correct and strive toward its founding ideals. I think too many conversations have focused on our mistakes instead of the great culture we’ve formed here in America.
