I opened a café at 17. Invested everything I'd made in the stock market into it — location, fit-out, the whole infrastructure. It failed.[1]

I opened a Google Doc the same week and started the next thing.

My computer teacher laughed when I said I was doing business. In class. Out loud. Like it was the setup to a joke.[2]

I smiled and walked away. I'm still walking.

Moved four cities in twelve months. Left things behind in each one — not by accident.[3] Somewhere between city two and city three I stopped trying to explain it.

I collect exits, not things.

The ISC board gave me 57%.[4]

I kept it. It documents well — especially next to the M&A work at Imarticus and the GTM strategy at Hexalog. Nice contrast.

I'm 18 and running 6 things simultaneously. I didn't plan to run 6 things. I just kept adding processes and never killed the old ones.
