About
I build companies as a way to put a different set of values into industries that weren’t built on them.

The unifying thesis is simple: technology is how a set of values gets distributed at scale. So I don’t build one company — I apply one method across industries. Internally we call it 2.0-ing a field: taking something that already works and rebuilding it radically better. Most companies are defined by their market. This one is defined by a method.
Right now, most of that method points at sport. PLAYBACK is the operating system for grassroots sport — the top 1% of tools for the 99% who play. It powers over 75,000 players every week across 25+ partners in 10+ countries. Of everything I’m building, it’s the one that’s personal.
Pedigree gets you in the room. Capital buys time. PR buys attention. None of them do the work.
I started the first company at fifteen. BRAIN2.0 began as a software company built around a single question — why is this industry running on someone else’s defaults? — and it still runs today as the studio the others are built inside.
In between, the engineering. I was headhunted to Amazon’s Supply Chain Automation team at nineteen; in my first weeks I rebuilt the team’s legacy R visualisation tool in Python — ninety percent less code, several times faster. Over the next three and a half years I became a key contributor to Amazon’s global Supply Chain Planning Automation Platform, the system that manages over five billion dollars in weekly inventory across the EU and US. My manager, Federico Arduino, called me the most exceptional intern he’d encountered in eight years at Amazon. I left in March 2026 to build full-time.
Outside the companies: founding member and ambassador of 1Club, an entrepreneurship community connecting yesterday’s innovators, today’s operators, and tomorrow’s leaders. I’ve mentored for over three years, and serve as a director of two organisations building platforms for under-represented communities.
