I provide access, structure, and resources to growth-focused businesses that want to expand through strategic relationships.

I’m the person people reach out to when they know relationships matter.

About Me

I love connecting people, providing opportunities, and helping grow businesses.

Over my career, I’ve worked in property management, real estate investing, food and beverage, security, business consulting, and I’ve operated my own business. Through my journey, I found myself doing the same thing: bringing people together, spotting opportunities, and helping things move.

Now I have a network of relationships ranging from Chief Executives, Politicians, Models, Chefs, Creatives, Community Leaders, Entrepreneurs, and everything in between.

But I didn’t start that way. Over many years, I’ve had to build myself, my reputation, and my skills to be where I am today.

I started growing my network by attending business events. Then speaking at events. Then curating events. I’ve turned my experiences into creating my own ecosystem of relationships. I figured out how to build strategic relationships to grow my business, career, and gain professional and personal opportunities.

Now I want to help others do the same.

My Perspective

Living and working in Atlanta has played a big role in shaping how I think about strategic relationships. Over the years, I’ve spent a lot of time inside private business clubs, founder and operator masterminds, leadership conversations, partnership discussions, and curated events.

I’ve hosted mixers, dinners, panels, workshops, and showcases not as social calendars, but as environments designed for strategic relationships to occur.

Being plugged into the ecosystem has given me a clear view into the struggles most people face no matter what their background, industry, experience, or personality, when it comes to building strategic relationships. The struggles can be summarized down to access, structure, and resources.

As someone who’s also struggled with those same challenges, I want to help because I know how frustrating and challenging the journey can be.

Why People Struggle With Relationships

Most people understand that relationships matter, but far fewer understand why their relationships fail to produce real outcomes. They attend events, make introductions, exchange contact information, and stay loosely connected—yet opportunities stall or never materialize. The issue is not effort or intent. It’s that most relationships remain informal, undefined, and unsupported by any real structure. This often leads to frustration, burnout, or the belief that relationships don’t work.

My work exists to solve that. I help growth-focused individuals and businesses move beyond casual connections by providing access to the right environments, structure to turn relationships into assets, and resources to support execution. Instead of leaving relationship-building to chance, I design pathways where opportunities can form, mature, and compound. The result is fewer wasted conversations, stronger alignment, and relationships that move businesses forward.

What I Do and How It Works

I work with growth-focused individuals and businesses who understand that relationships are essential, but need assistance with building and leveraging them intentionally. My role is to bring clarity to which relationships actually matter, where they should be formed, and how they should be developed over time. Rather than focusing on volume or visibility, the work starts with defining objectives, identifying gaps, and aligning relationship efforts to real business or career outcomes.

From there, I provide access, structure, and resources to support execution. Access places you in the right rooms and conversations. Structure turns informal connections into intentional, outcome-driven relationships. Resources ensure follow-through through guidance, systems, and strategic support. The result is a repeatable approach to relationship building that compounds over time—reducing wasted effort and creating opportunities that are aligned, durable, and measurable.

Beyond the Business

Outside of work, I enjoy being active, present, and immersed in the city and the people around me. I spend a lot of time at concerts, walking the BeltLine, hiking, and dancing—things that keep me moving, social, and engaged. I enjoy environments with energy and rhythm, whether that’s live music, a packed dance floor, or a long walk with no agenda other than being outside and thinking.

At my core, I’m curious, social, and reflective. I enjoy learning new things, having meaningful conversations, and being around people who are building, questioning, and evolving. I value experiences over excess, momentum over stagnation, and authenticity over performance. The same curiosity and presence I bring to my personal life is what shapes how I show up everywhere else—engaged, intentional, and genuinely interested in people and the world around me.
