The Terrible Trading Company was built by an underdog to help the underdogs.

Raised in a small town outside Pittsburgh, I learned early that if something’s broken, you fix it. You don’t cry about it. You go to work. No excuses accepted.

I built this company to help people solve tough problems with honesty, grit, and creativity, and to prove that “terrible” doesn’t mean hopeless. It just means it’s time to trade up.

Named after a towel, but never throw one in.

A stack of three books with colorful spines. The top book is blue with the title 'THE LEAN S'. The middle book has a black cover with the word 'startup' written on it and authors listed underneath. The bottom book is yellow, partially showing the title 'THE POWER OF H'. The books are stacked horizontally in a close-up view.

I wasn’t supposed to get here. I came from nothing. Nobody expected much from me, and when I needed help the most, there wasn’t anyone to call. I know what it’s like to face problems too big, too confusing, or too exhausting to deal with alone. I’ve been stuck. I’ve been scared. I’ve been overwhelmed.

I don’t have wealth or privilege or a fancy title. What I do have is a brain that works differently. I connect the dots others don’t see. I don’t come with all the answers, but I bring a fire, a focus, and a way of thinking that cracks open hard problems and finds creative, workable solutions when nobody else can. I love the challenge. I love the process. And I love the people I get to help through it.

There are bigger firms out there, with flashier websites and slicker teams. But they don’t have what I have: lightning in a bottle. If you’re stuck, I can help you move forward. If you’re ready to work, I’m ready to build something with you. Let’s figure it out, together.
