The MSP channel speaks its own language. I’ve spent years learning its dialect, not from the outside, but from deep inside the ecosystem where SaaS founders either earn trust or get ignored.

I’ve watched exceptional products stall in the MSP space for one reason. Not because they didn’t work, but because they weren’t understood. MSPs don’t buy vision decks or clever positioning. They buy solutions to real operational problems, clearly articulated, in language that respects their reality.

Today, I operate at the intersection of systems and story.

I serve as Chief of Staff at Cyft, where we’re building Sam, an AI teammate that remembers service calls so technicians don’t have to. Documentation just happens. She remembers what humans shouldn’t have to carry. My role focuses on building the operational backbone that allows that promise to scale with integrity. Structure, decision clarity, and the quiet infrastructure that makes products usable in the real world.

Alongside that work, I’m a co-founder of CMND Media, where I help MSP-focused SaaS founders translate their expertise into messaging that actually moves sales conversations forward. No jargon. No buzzwords. Just clear narratives built for a channel that values practicality over hype.

I specialize in three things that matter most to MSP-aligned startups:
	•	Channel-aware go-to-market strategy that respects how MSPs buy
	•	Growth planning that accounts for partner complexity, not just theory
	•	Messaging that resonates with owners juggling fifty priorities, not marketing trends

My simple offer has not changed.
If MSPs don’t understand why your solution matters, I can help fix that.

No filler. No noise. Just clarity that converts.

✒ Do today what others will not so you can do tomorrow what others can not

I spent the first 6 years of my entrepreneurial journey being a tech guy that hated sales. That led to burning through $4M and hitting rock bottom. Now I'm paying back that debt by showing tech entrepreneurs how to use cybersecurity as a way to sell without feeling salesy. When you have the right tools, sales feels a lot like helping people solve problems. That's Iceberg Cyber 💪

Through my podcast, Cyber Confidential, I shares the founder stories of MSPs walking the path and learning to love sales while they do it.
