I've spent the last thirty years shaping ideas into form, across architecture, design, marketing, and systems. But the deeper thread running through all of it is this: I build things that create clarity.
I started my career in architecture and design, pushing early boundaries by integrating 3D modeling and computer-aided systems into environments where they didn't yet exist. That pioneering instinct led me to Walt Disney Imagineering, and later into leadership roles in innovation, application development, and experience design.
From there, I built and led Ulanguzi, a branding and creative agency that served clients across nearly every industry: banking, hospitality, consumer goods, SaaS, real estate, B2B. For over a decade, I guided hundreds of companies through the high-stakes work of turning vision into strategy, and brand into business.
And then everything I'd built fell apart.
In 2008, I lost my business. What followed was a long unraveling of the identity I had constructed around work, performance, and control. By 2012, I stopped drinking. Not because someone told me to, but because I finally recognized the pattern I was living inside. That decision changed everything. It didn't make life easier. It made life honest.
The years that followed reshaped my entire approach, to business, to fatherhood, to leadership, to myself. The goal became less about building more and more about building right.
Today, I'm the CEO and co-founding partner of Sunny HQ, a human-first WordPress hosting and support company. Sunny HQ is more than a hosting platform. It's a reflection of everything I've learned about time, systems, service, and growth. It exists to remove the tech burden from teams and founders so they can focus on what truly matters.
I'm also the author of The 7 Mirrors, a framework for self-recognition built from personal memory, healing, design, and leadership. The book explores seven perspectives that reveal how we lose ourselves through story, reactivity, and inherited patterns, and how presence, practiced daily, becomes the path back.
My work now sits at the intersection of the strategic and the personal. I coach leaders, speak to teams, and write about the inner work that makes the outer work sustainable. I build systems that support humans, not the other way around.
