About me

I'm an author, and media strategist. I write The Spark, a weekly newsletter about marketing, strategy, and personal growth.

When I was 16, I cold-emailed Tyler Denk, CEO of beehiiv, with a list of ideas on how I could help. That message turned into an internship where I built beehiiv101, a course that's helped thousands of users unlock the platform's potential.

At 17, I sent Noah Kagan, founder of AppSumo, a 19-page pitch deck breaking down the gaps in his social and email marketing, and how to fix them. That landed me a role as Head of Content, where I led campaigns like the one that made Million Dollar Weekend a New York Times bestseller.

At 18, I scaled a ghostwriting and creative agency, helping founders and CEOs across industries build an audience and grow their business using organic content.

At 19, I self-published my first book, 'You Can Just Do Things', which became an Amazon bestseller. That same year, I dropped out of college to join Alex & Leila Hormozi's media team at Acquisition.com, where I helped with the campaign that broke a Guinness World Record and made $106M in a weekend.

These days I consult for the top business personal brands in the space about written media, and make content about what I'm learning.

I also just released my 2nd book 'Work With The Best'. You can grab your copy here.
