About the founder

BUILT BY
SOMEONE WHO
FELT THE PAIN.

I'm a national championship coach turned product manager turned AI founder. I've led digital products at Kroger, Paymentus, and Wells Fargo — processing over 100,000 transactions a month and leading modernization projects at enterprise scale. I hold an MBA from the University of Michigan and a BS from Belmont Abbey College.

But when I started building my own companies — PublishShark, ShipperBridge, and now Six Swarm — I ran into the same wall every founder hits: sales and marketing were the hardest things I'd ever done. I knew how to build products. I didn't know how to fill a pipeline without a team.

So I built the team I wished I had. Six AI agents that handle every stage of outbound — from finding the prospect to booking the meeting. Six Swarm exists because I needed it first.

If you're a founder, a small tech company, or a business that knows it has a great product but can't figure out how to get it in front of the right people — this was built for you.
