The Beginning:
In the figurative garage in 2023, what began as a side project with some friends to explore AI, digital ownership, co-creation and, and autonomous company design quickly became a multi-year, full-time rodeo in brand building, fractional worker herding, venture betting, and giving away all of our money.
I co-founded this project, acted as creative lead, built and managed the team, established a culture, and have been a the managing director for the last three years.
Some Highlights:
-Launched a digital collectibles brand that raised over 3mm USD and had IP valued at 8mm USD.
-Invited our true believers to build a fractionalized workforce company with us.
-Managed 20+ fractional contributors and helped get them all hired FT or founding their own thing.
-3mm USD invested into our community or returned back to true believers.
-Incorporated into a globally touring art and technology show.
-Our art was collected by professional footballers from S. Korea, Parliament members from Japan, and folks from around the world who wanted a network and a chance to build their dream.

Veg Out
Real-time Brand Stunt
What’s a place named Noodles supposed to do in this Gluten-free, no-carb world? Reinvent the way people noodle, of course. And in the process, reintroduce the world to the carefree fun of the Noodles brand. In a real-time, unscripted moment, we launched our newest offering, the zoodle, and challenged the Today Show ladies to put the day in the history books by spiraling the most ever zucchini on our one-of-a-kind invention, the Zoodler.
Results:
Today Show stunt: 297 million impressions.

Bring the Flavor
Integrated
There’s nothing worse than being bland. Vanilla is a waste of time and cookie cutter isn’t worth the dough. That’s because the only spice of life is literal spice. In what we eat and who we are. That’s why we created a pizza for those who bring their own special flavor to every situation.

Integrated
Housed in Walmart, the spiritual home of getting it done, SmartStyle is making it easier to get hair done for the whole family. When you can hit that feeling of flow, checking off the to-do list is kinda fun. Because we all know it’s always better to knock it out while looking like a knockout. So, check it off. Then, check you out.
Stop Donating to the Homeless
Integrated
There's a startup on almost every street in LA. And in every corner of Skid Row. It's a pretty radical claim. That's why we invited a group of venture capitalists to a real pitch meeting to hear about a startling new investment opportunity.
