Electrician

US Navy

As a Nuclear Electrician’s Mate in the U.S. Navy, I qualified through one of the most rigorous technical training pipelines in the military. I maintained, operated, and troubleshot electrical systems within a high-reliability naval nuclear propulsion environment, performing both preventive and corrective maintenance on power distribution equipment, control circuitry, and safety systems. The role demanded strict adherence to procedures, precise technical documentation, and consistent systems discipline. My time in the Navy built habits of accountability, attention to detail, and composure under pressure — habits that continue to shape how I approach engineering work today.

I’ve always been drawn to how things connect — systems, processes, people, and the ideas that keep them moving.

I began my career in the U.S. Navy as a Nuclear Electrician’s Mate, where I learned to work with high-reliability systems, uncompromising standards, and the kind of discipline that only comes from environments where mistakes aren’t optional. That foundation shaped how I approach technical work and responsibility today.

After the Navy (and a lot of subsequent schooling in physics and engineering), I continued building my career in complex transportation and engineering environments. I moved into hands-on electrical systems work in passenger rail operations and later took on roles in commissioning and systems integration.

Today, I work in multi-stakeholder project coordination and technical review for rail fleet programs while also co-owning School of Rock Salt Lake City, where I manage daily operations, program development, and community engagement. Operating a business alongside a technical career has sharpened my ability to understand people, prioritize decisions, and stay accountable for outcomes.

Earning my Professional Engineer (PE) license has deepened my sense of accountability, not just to technical standards, but also to the people and systems those standards serve.

My goal is to continue bridging the gap between engineering precision and people-centered management, and to grow into a leader who brings clarity, empathy, and structure to complex environments.

Learning to lead through systems and people.

Chief Marketing Officer | B2B Marketing Systems that Scale 50x Revenue | ESD Global Trainer for Self-Defense 🥷

"Wait… what do you actually do?"

In a nutshell, its all B2B marketing strategies that grow revenues but...

If I had a dollar for every time I heard this on LinkedIn, I’d have enough to retire and finally open that pizza place I dream about 🍕

Worked with 10+ startups, 20+ business owners to SCALE through marketing systems. 
Oh and landed a deal of Warner Bros for my company..

Here’s what I actually do 👇

I help B2B startups and founders go from:

🫥 Invisible → 🧠 Unforgettable
💤 Cold leads → 💰 Warm revenue
📉 Random posts → 🚀 Strategic growth engines

💡 Think of me as the marketing brain you plug into your business when you’re ready to stop guessing and start scaling.

What that looks like IRL:

Building high-converting marketing funnels
Creating personal brand strategies that drive leads
Running content and email marketing that doesn’t put people to sleep
Helping VCs, investors service providers, SaaS & real estate brands own their niche

Its pretty simple ... Just bold strategy + systems that sell.

So, if you're a business owner, marketer, or investor wondering why growth feels stuck...
We should probably talk.

(Or at least follow me for practical posts that don’t suck.)
