I build software, create content, and explore the intersection of technology and what it means to be human. My path here wasn’t straight - and I think that’s the best part of the story.
I grew up playing hockey, competed at a high level, and won the Sutherland Cup in my final season. That should have been the high point. Instead, what followed was one of the hardest periods of my life: losing the identity I had built around hockey and having to find my footing again.
That experience cracked something open. I became obsessed with understanding consciousness, mental health, the nature of reality, and what actually drives human wellbeing. I started creating - writing, making videos, building things - and discovered that communication and technology were how I processed the world.
I studied Media, Information and Technoculture at Western University and Interactive Media Design and Production at Fanshawe College, started a marketing agency, built tools for people, and eventually founded Speak AI - a platform that helps hundreds of thousands of people work with voice, audio, and video data.
After winning the Sutherland Cup, losing my hockey identity forced me to rethink who I was and what matters.
Studied Media, Information and Technoculture at Western University and Interactive Media Design and Production at Fanshawe College, then built a marketing and analytics consultancy serving clients across industries.
Launched Speak AI with a simple thesis: voice data is the most underutilized business asset. Built the product, the team, and the community from zero.
Scaled Speak AI to 100K+ users, expanded into meeting intelligence, built integrations with Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet, and grew a global customer base.
Rebuilt Speak AI as an AI-native intelligence platform. Became a father. Continuing to explore the frontier of AI, voice, and human communication.
Real stories and hard-won lessons over curated highlight reels. The messy parts are where the insight lives.
Technology should amplify human capability, not replace human connection. I build with that constraint in mind.
The spoken word carries nuance that text loses. I’m obsessed with what becomes possible when we capture and understand it.
An advocate for open conversation about mental health and understanding the mind.
