Why to Follow:
- I (over)share learnings on two high-growth businesses that I am building
- I will consistently put out content 5-7x per week
- I am an expert in nothing and don't pretend to be
- I have nothing to sell you, other than creatine gummies of course ;)

Create: Building the first modern creatine brand. Our first product is the creatine monohydrate gummy -- a first of its kind creatine monohydrate gummy that makes taking creatine enjoyable. Company's mission is to reverse the creatine stigma, so that more people can benefit from it.

Not Boring: Growing Not Boring with my brother-boss Packy. I write the Friday newsletter, "The Weekly Dose of Optimism" and run all-things business so that Pack can focus on writing and investing. Not Boring is currently the #2 business newsletter on Substack.

Previous: Have worked at venture-backed ecommerce brands for over 5 years, first at Away and then at Parade. At Parade, I wore many hats including overseeing Finance, Operations, and Growth, scaling the brand from a $16M valuation to a $200M valuation in under two years.

Other: I come from an entrepreneurial family outside of Philadelphia -- mom, dad, brother, sister, sister-in-law all own-and-operate their own small businesses. I definitely wasn't the entrepreneurial kid starting lemonade stands or flipping candy, but the dinner table did largely revolve around business topics.
