I've been building products since before I could legally rent a car.

I founded and ran Animation Fuel, a B2B SaaS marketing company. I closed and delivered 20+ clients across the US, Europe, and Africa (Atenya, Flarie, Eddress, BPI Power, Talpro Software), led a team of 10 growth reps, and managed 30+ projects end to end, most running 3 to 9 months. Lead-gen, sales calls, pitch, delivery: I owned the full path, not just the marketing layer.

Alongside that, I spent ~2 years doing project management at Artistic Visions, working with enterprise B2B clients including SPIMACO, HealthLinks, ARAC Healthcare, and Medi-Sense. I ran their projects start to finish, sat on the sales calls myself, and managed everything from pitch to delivery. Startups taught me speed; enterprises taught me structure. I've worked both.

Then I built something most people don't have: my own AI workforce.

I work with AI all day, every day. I don't use chatbots, I run systems. I built Argus, my personal AI chief of staff, and around it an agentic team that plans, executes, and verifies work: dashboards, email systems, data scanners, all running on autopilot. My operations run 24/7 while other people sleep.

Here's my honest pitch, and it's my favorite line: I don't come alone. In any job I take, I arrive with a team of AI agents I built myself. One hire, multiplied output.

I understand SaaS products from the founder's side: acquiring customers, keeping them, pricing them, and delivering to them. I'm a power user of HubSpot, Monday, ClickUp, Slack, and AI coding tools like Claude Code and Codex.

Now the real story: I'm deliberately stepping away from running my company day to day. Two and a half years of building solo taught me a lot, but I want to go deep inside a SaaS company, learn from a strong team, and grow my career for the next few years instead of building alone.

I don't need micromanagement. If something's broken, I fix it before anyone has to ask.
