Companies and communities. Twenty years of building both.
Now building AI-native products from Frisco, Texas: ENTEVATE, Momentify, Engiyo, AUTIX, and KINECT.
AI writes the code. I decide what’s worth building, how it should work, and how it gets to market. That’s how one builder ships multiple platforms.
Underneath the products is AI Foundry: shared infrastructure every platform starts from, so security, process, and plumbing get solved once and each new product begins from a working base instead of from zero. It is extraordinary at execution and completely indifferent to direction. If you can’t set direction, it will build the wrong thing faster than you ever have.
AUTIX
Rebuilt; unlocked the patent-pending xEstimate and the Ian Fleming Foundation collection.
Momentify
Rebuilt from the ground up with paying clients already on it.
KINECT
Idea to working product over one weekend, with an internal agent, Kai.
Engiyo
The CMO in a box: a marketing team’s whole workflow, in one platform.
“My purpose is to better people’s lives. I am fulfilled when others are fulfilled.”
Leadership
Growing and scaling businesses, building culture and values, and the discipline to get it done.
Entrepreneurship
Ecosystem building, economic development, and mentoring founders from idea to launch.
Business & Innovation
Innovation strategy, digital transformation, change management, and AI adoption that ships.
Creative & Marketing
Brand and design, inbound and social marketing, and experiential campaigns people remember.
Connecting traditional, top-down economic development with the grassroots, community-driven environments where most entrepreneurs actually thrive. Through NTX Collective, Right to Start, and Startup Champions Network.
“In order to prevail in today’s ever-changing economy, we must treat our communities like a startup; taking calculated risks, but being willing to lead with boldness and courage to move into the future and not stay stuck in the past.”JAKE HAMANN / APR 2021
