Hi, I'm Brian. I coach leaders from every level who see good things ahead and want help navigating to them in a way that saves time and money. If you are a small business owner (aspiring or actual) I can help you make progress to get what you want. I work with leaders to to refine their message, define direction, and execute on simple actions to produce REAL results. I have experience coaching first-time team leaders, department directors, and C-suite executives to foster leadership excellence. My approach is centered around asking powerful questions that reveal truth and help you navigate your unique path forward. Additionally, my experience as an entrepreneur myself puts me in a position to understand what it means to take an idea and grow it into a business with impact. To be frank, you have all the information you could ever want at your finger tips. Your progress isn't really tied to information. It's tied to thoughtful and deliberate application of that information. That's where I can help. If you are a small business owner, whether you are at the beginning or already well on your way, I can help you get where you're going more efficiently and effectively. Let's connect to explore how we can work together to accomplish the bright future you see ahead!

Grow your business. Grow yourself even faster. I have experienced every stage of business-building, from creating multiple profitable businesses myself, to startups of 6 to 2,000 employees, and experienced every stage of growth from Seed to IPO over the last decade-plus. I have mentored dozens of entrepreneurs and can coach you through business-building and improving your personal productivity with tough love. My passion is coaching leaders who are scaling themselves and their organizations. If you’re a leader in a fast-paced environment where you’re challenged with bringing order out of chaos and building processes for scaling teams, I would love to be your advisor and coach. I consider myself a leader, a learner, and an entrepreneur. Startup business operations generalist. Team builder. Marine Corps veteran. Accomplished in 15+ years of leadership, operations, recruiting, and communications. As a consulting project manager and a startup executive, I have put my heart and soul into team leadership. Through operations management and personal leadership, my teams have exemplified discipline and continual improvement.

The equation is simple: value = pain + education. Your clients or prospects have the pain: I help you educate them. I've helped entrepreneurs raise, sell, and close millions of dollars from the powerful stories we tell in the form of sales and pitch decks. I've honed this skill as I've been trained in a pitch deck design firm, to running a startup incubator, to working in VC, to now running my own brand and deck agency. I'm your go-to source for branding, storytelling, and presentation structure. In addition, I have extensive experience in data analytics, 0 to 1 startup innovation, customer research, market/competitive analysis, and strategy. I love the entrepreneurship game! Looking forward to learning about your story.

With years of hands-on entrepreneurial experience, I bring a deep understanding of what it takes to build, scale, and sustain a business. As the Co-founder & CCO of S2S Dynamics, a circular economy startup tackling e-waste through tech-driven solutions, I have led commercial strategy, partnerships, and market positioning to drive growth and impact. Prior to this, I co-founded and scaled a renewable energy company to million-dollar revenues, overseeing marketing, strategic alliances, and business development across multiple markets. My journey has given me firsthand exposure to the challenges of fundraising, go-to-market strategy, and sustainable business models—insights I now share as an adjunct professor mentoring startups and executives at IE University. Whether you're an aspiring founder refining your idea, a startup looking to scale, or a corporate innovator driving intrapreneurship, I can help you navigate the complexities of entrepreneurship with practical guidance and actionable strategies.

I am an entrepreneur with a passion for turning my interests into impactful businesses. I founded Blog Beauty Boss, a platform where I interview beauty entrepreneurs to share their inspiring stories and insights with the world. In addition, I created "Dance with Parina," where I teach dance and choreograph performances, further showcasing my love for the art. I am dedicated to coaching others on how to transform their passions into successful side hustles, offering guidance and support to help them achieve their entrepreneurial dreams.

As the former founder of a early-stage startup incubator and lead generation company, I'm deeply familiar with the aspects of building a new startup. I've found that I most enjoy the process of ideating, identifying a target audience, and building something new and coaching those who are going through those phases. I've developed my own templates based on my founder experiences and continue to use them and their core principles in my work. I've mentored with startup founders at many different stages of their entrepreneurship from not having an idea to having an idea but lacking the technical skills to build it to having an idea and the skills, but not a structured target audience to needing insights on target audience outreach and other common early-stage pitfalls. Wherever you land, I've been there and not only progressed past it, but also help my mentees do the same. Let's get you started on your startup!
