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.

Au Revoir to Applewood Court
Sitting here writing my blog from the upstairs dining room at my parents house for the final time. Looking out, staring at the snow covered grown, the squirrels, trees, and everything in between.
Memories are flashing before my eyes. They’re playing in perfect resolution.
As each memory comes up, I take a deep breath and enjoy that memory no matter the emotion.
USA Wins Gold – Moving Forward
First and foremost, USA! USA! USA!
I love my country and I love winning. What a special Gold Medal game by the boys of Team USA Hockey. I’ll never forget being able to watch this game live.
As I mentioned, last week there were a lot of things moving and the week revolved around pulling the trigger on some longer term projects for Fountain Forward.
Setting sail on a journey, if you will.
