Helping You Build Wealth with Tech Equity and become the Founder of Your Financial Independence

In the early 2000s,  my focus was on growing my skills, climbing the ladder, and being where I needed to be to get the job done. 

In 2009, I burned out hard. 

My new plan was to work for equity in tech start-ups and become financially independent.

Swing and Miss, the first start-up company I chose to work for, was going nowhere (equity worth zero). 

What happened? Did I screw up everything?

I chose the company because I was passionate about its mission, but I had not examined it further. I had no real plan.

My next step was to call people that I knew had been successful in working for equity in tech and see what was different in their "playbook."

Key lessons learned after first dead-end tech startup:
 -In trading my time and talent for equity, I need to think like an investor
 -Create a rigorous due diligence process
 -Don't fear failure, stay in the game
 -Keep learning

May 2011, Started at Splunk Pre-IPO

April 19th, 2012 Splunk had a break-out IPO

April 20th, 2012 feelings of anxiety and fear creep in about how to manage the newly generated wealth. 

I had to figure out how to get real income (real estate) into my portfolio. I needed something sending me checks.

Key lessons learned after the first IPO:
 -How to invest in private equity real estate
 -Set up my family for generational wealth
 -Own the result (don't put my future in someone else's hands)

New Mission: Be the Founder of a Micro Family Office to become Financially Independent.

Strategy:
 -Live within paychecks
 -Bonuses for extras
 -Invest all of our equity

I climbed the ladder to become a CIO. 

At the peak, I realized I wanted to build my DIY Family Office more than climb the ladder.

I changed roles and reduced my scope. 

On August 26, 2022, I graduated from my W-2 job to live a lifestyle by design.

I founded WealthOps in 2023 to equip technology professionals with the skills to build and run their portfolios.

My Portfolio:
 -3  Start-Ups I worked for IPOed (SPLK, YEXT, GTLB) <-Traded Time
 -Replaced paycheck with $200k+ of portfolio income
 -Built my Micro Family Office
 -Running a company structured around my life

My Results:
 -Highly Diversified Portfolio - Stocks, PE Real Estate, Debt, Businesses, and VC. 
 -$223 Million AUM with investors
 -7 Investments  gone full cycle with an Avg 19.4% IRR to investors
 -1000+ tech employees being educated on Managing Tech Millions
 -20+  and growing Portfolio CEOs

My mission - 1000+ Portfolio CEOs

Subscribe to learn about career growth, tech equity,  portfolio income, investing, budgeting, student loans, and more.

We just crossed 100 members in 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼 𝗙𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿.

But here's what matters more than the number.

100 entrepreneurs, physicians, and tech professionals who stopped being clients and started being CEOs of their wealth.

Most wealth management sells you dependency. 
Hire us. Trust us. Let "us" handle it.

We teach the opposite.

You already run complex operations. 
You make million-dollar decisions. 
You manage teams and P&Ls.

The skills you used to build wealth? 𝘛𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘴 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘩.

You don't need someone to do it for you. You need the frameworks specific to wealth operations.

That's the shift these 100 families made.

They're learning:

- The Evergreen Portfolio Model.
- Structured Alpha Strategies.
- Asset Protection Strategies.
- Family Office Operations.
- The Deduction Stack. 
- The Income Pyramid.
- Entity Architecture.
- Tax Optimization. 
- Deal Evaluation.

Not theory. Actual implementation.

Same rigor you'd bring to building a product. 
Same systematic thinking you'd apply to scaling a business.

Just applied to the thing that ACTUALLY compounds over generations.

The difference between a client and a Portfolio CEO? 
Clients delegate and hope. 
Portfolio CEOs architect and operate.

In a few days, I'm hosting a live workshop on how to architect your own Micro Family Office.

I Run My Own Micro Family Office and Teach Others to Do the Same | Founder @ WealthOps

In 2012, I became a millionaire.

Three months later, I realized I had no idea what to do with the money.

I met with wealth advisors. Every single one gave me the same pitch:

"𝘎𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘶𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘺. 𝘞𝘦'𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘪𝘧𝘺 𝘪𝘵. 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘶𝘴."

- Zero customization. 
- Zero long-term strategy. 
- Just a cookie-cutter portfolio.

That's when I discovered the problem:

If you have $1M-$30M, you're stuck in what I call the financial service desert.

You're too wealthy for mass-market advisors.

But not wealthy enough for a traditional family office ($100M+ minimum).

So I spent years studying how ultra-wealthy families actually manage money.

And I built what I now call a 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼 𝗙𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲.

The result after 4.5 years:
→ Portfolio generating $200K+ of annual cashflow
→ Principal still growing (not selling any assets)
→ 10 hours/week managing everything
→ Full control over every decision

Here's what most people get wrong:

They think wealth management is about picking stocks.

It's not. (This stuff comes last)

𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗿 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂.

Here are the four-phases of every Micro Family Office:

𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁 → Define your legacy and investment thesis
𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 → Create legal structures and assemble your team
𝗥𝘂𝗻 → Operate with monthly/quarterly rhythms
𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 → Transfer systems, not just assets

Look... if you're sitting on $1M+ and still treating your portfolio like a savings account, you're leaving money on the table.

Want to build your own Micro Family Office?

I'm running a free 2-hour workshop where I'll walk you through building the foundation - your Legacy Statement and Investment Thesis.

Over 1,000 people have attended so far.

Goldman Sachs just surveyed 245 families managing $1 billion+ portfolios.

Here's what they're doing while everyone else is paralyzed...

Despite big concerns, they're not sitting on cash.

They're executing.

The data tells a clear story:
→ 34%  are reducing cash positions
→ 39%  increasing private equity allocations
→ 38%  adding to their public equities
→ 26%  expanding private credit exposure

Here's what this actually means...

These families aren't reacting to headlines.

And the most important finding?

70% manage their investments in-house.

They're not outsourcing critical decisions to advisors.

They have clear investment theses.

They run quarterly reviews.

They make annual business plans for their portfolios.

This creates a playbook:
✓ Patient capital with decade+ time horizons
✓ Opportunistic deployment during dislocations
✓ Programmatic commitments regardless of sentiment
✓ Zero emotional reaction to geopolitical noise

The difference isn't wealth.

It's operational structure.

It's having systems that work when markets don't.

It's knowing what to do before you need to do it.

Most people with $1-30M don't have this.

They have... 
- Scattered accounts.
- Generic advice.
- No investment thesis.
- No operating rhythm.

The good news is this is fixable.

If you want to learn how to build these operational systems for your portfolio - the same frameworks these ultra-wealthy families use - I'm running a live workshop walking through the exact architecture.

Comment "WORKSHOP" and I'll send you the details.

Goldman Sachs surveyed 245 family offices managing $1B+ each.

Here's some takeaways from the data...

- 86% have AI exposure.
But here's what matters: 87% are also using AI to manage their portfolios. They're not just betting on the trend, they're operationalizing it in their own wealth mgmt.

- 72% are active in secondaries.
This isn't random. When there is liquidity pressure, family offices buy discounted assets. They have patient capital. No quarterly redemptions. No exit timelines forcing their hand.

- 33% now hold crypto (up from 26% in 2023).
Still a minority. Still selective but growing steadily. APAC shows the strongest interest - likely because they're most concerned about geopolitics (75%) and see digital assets as a hedge.

- 58% expect to be overweight tech in the next 12 months.
Despite market volatility. Despite valuation concerns. They're leaning INTO trends, not away from them.

Some regional differences...

- Americas: Highest PE allocation (25%) and increasing

- APAC: Most geopolitically concerned, highest crypto interest

- EMEA: New interest in hedge funds for sophisticated downside protection

If you want to learn how to build the operational structure these families use - adapted for $1-30M portfolios - I'm running a free workshop walking through the complete framework.

Tuesday, January 21st at 8:00pm ET.

Comment "WORKSHOP" and I'll send you the registration link.

Have over $10M in income? Your audit risk jumps to 8.8%. (𝟮𝟮𝘅 𝗮𝘃𝗴)

But here's what really caught my attention when I was digging through IRS data last week:

If you have over $20M in assets? 

𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁 𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝘀𝗸𝘆𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝟭𝟴.𝟮%.

That's not a typo. Nearly 1 in 5 chance.

In 2024 alone there were $84.1 billion in penalties assessed.

Here's the thing most people don't realize:

The root cause of an IRS penalty often isn’t an error on your tax return.

It’s the byproduct of operating your wealth like a hobby, not a business.

- Improper entity structures. 
- Lack of documentation.
- Everything scattered.
- No routine systems.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗿𝗮-𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁.

They run Family Offices with clear governance, documented strategies, and institutional-grade documentation.

But you don't need $100M to operate this way.

You just need the right framework.

And that's exactly what a Micro Family Office does.

It gives you the structure, systems, and documentation that transform your wealth from a compliance risk into a well-run operation.

Because when you operate your wealth like a business, you're not just protecting yourself.

You're building something that actually scales and can be passed down.

Ready to get organized and stop flying blind?

Join my free live workshop on Feb. 4th at 8:00pm ET where I'll walk you through how to build your own Micro Family Office.

I help Engineers make $ investing in apartments passively without Tenants, Toilets, Termites or Trash. No Loans, Liens or Lawsuits to worry about. Diversify from Wall St -> Main St.

Oil &amp; Gas: Due to the high interest rates in the past few years, Rita was hesitant to invest in apartments. I don't blame her. But Rita wanted the tax advantages from depreciation like I did. So Rita invested in oil &amp; gas instead, which can offset her W2 income with the 80% tax benefit from tangible and intangible drilling costs, and depletion allowance. You have to keep in mind that there is a lot of volatility in the crude oil prices and be ok with that among other risk factors.

Real Estate : John is a busy tech executive with a large portion of his portfolio in the stock market, and particularly in his company stock due to years of accumulating stock options. John wanted to diversify but didn't have time to take care of repairs, leasing, maintenance and potential liabilities with being a landlord. So, John invested in 3 syndications with me, 2 of which have been bought and sold with returns exceeding initial projections. (Every deal is different and carries its own set of risks/rewards).One size doesn't fit all. 

As always, consult with your financial, legal and tax professionals like John and Rita did before making any investments.

Apartment Syndicator helping busy engineers and professionals diversify their portfolio from the stock market into real estate without the liabilities and headaches of a landlord.

The moment I did this, my business grew too.

(I'm honestly sad I didn't focus on this metric much sooner)

Stop looking at just the middle numbers. Start seeing the bottom line.

Yes, net cash. Profit. Not just... Net Operating Income or NOI.

Net Income is the last number in the income statement.  Or your bank statement.

What is remaining after all the income comes in and all the expenses go out?

Most webinar slides have the flashy “IRR”. 

They'll rarely - if ever - share the bottom line.

You need to know : 

At what point does the investment become cash positive?

Advice can be found everywhere.
But actionable tips  ... can't.
This is what comes from experience 
 
Do you know YOUR net cash?
Or when your deal makes money?

Find this for all your investments 

P.S. Remember, profits = dividends. Otherwise, it is return of capital from raising excess $
