In 2018, I co-founded The Influencer Marketing Factory with $1,500 and no connections in the US. Today it's a global company with 50+ employees, offices across three continents, and a client roster that includes Google, Meta, Sony Music, Unilever, Hyundai, and Hilton.
I didn't get here by following playbooks. I got here by solving the problems nobody prepares you for: hiring the wrong people, chasing revenue that kills your margins, scaling operations before your systems can handle it, navigating M&A conversations, collecting from clients who go silent.
I've guest lectured at Cornell, NYU Stern, and Northwestern. I've been featured in TIME, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, BBC, and Harvard Business Review. But what makes me useful to you isn't the press. It's the fact that I've lived every stage of the journey you're on right now.
