Built by someone who understands growth—and why businesses struggle to get it

10+ years building products. Focused on helping businesses generate real pipeline.

Founder • Product Leader • National Champion Rugby Coach

I’ve worked in technology and product development for over 10 years, helping build and launch digital platforms across companies like Wells Fargo, Kroger, Paymentus, and in the nonprofit space.

One of the most impactful products I led was a disbursements platform that allowed users to securely receive payments by authenticating and choosing how they wanted to get paid— whether through bank transfer or debit card. That experience reinforced how important simplicity, trust, and user experience are in driving real outcomes.

Outside of technology, I’ve spent over 15 years coaching rugby, winning a national championship and reaching four Final Fours. Coaching taught me how to build systems, develop people, and focus on consistent execution—principles I bring into every product I build.

Why I Built PublishShark

I created PublishShark after seeing a consistent problem: great businesses and marketing agencies were struggling to get their message in front of the right people.

I would regularly see strong businesses buried in search rankings or not generating consistent leads— not because they lacked quality, but because they lacked the systems to identify opportunities and act on them quickly.

PublishShark was built to solve that by identifying opportunities, generating outreach, and creating proposals that can be sent immediately.

What PublishShark Does

PublishShark helps businesses and agencies generate pipeline faster by combining market intelligence with automated outreach.

The goal is simple: give you a faster path from opportunity to revenue.
