The situation has been remarkably consistent. The industry hasn't.
Motley Fool Germany
Founded and built Motley Fool's German business from scratch. Navigated a new language, a new regulatory environment, and a new audience with no existing playbook. Grew it to €2M+ in revenue and led it to a profitable exit.
The Ascent
Walked into a $75M affiliate media business and scaled it past $100M. Built the cross-functional systems, defined what winning looked like across a large distributed team, and drove the operational foundation that made growth sustainable rather than fragile.
MyWalletHero
Built a fintech content and affiliate platform in two regulated markets — UK and Canada — from employee #1. Handled everything from market strategy to compliance alignment to team build-out, with no template for how it was supposed to work.
AI Content Operation
Built an AI content operation from scratch: 7 automated pipelines, 4,000+ published articles, Legal-approved automation framework. Did it in 12 months at a time when no one had a playbook for this. The operation ran at a scale that would have required a much larger team without the AI infrastructure.
