The Story
The Comeback They Said Wouldn't Happen
Lost my dad at 7. Juvie. Boys homes. Psych ward. 5+ years in state prison by the time I was 23. Came out with nothing but a relentless refusal to stay broken and be the dad I didn't have.
Built a podcast agency from scratch. 300+ top-ranked shows launched. $500k+ in revenue. Sat across from Andy Frisella, Patrick Bet-David, and many more.
Stepped away in 2023 to do shadow integration work. Came back stronger than ever — building PodcastAuthority.ai, raising my twin sons in the trenches, and equipping entrepreneurs and business owners with the tools and frameworks to build authority.
