CEO at GABB | Safe Tech for Kids & Teens | Advocate for Single Parents

After 25 years in sports and tech, I now have the honor of working with the best team in the home services industry. At Greenix Pest Control, we protect more than 250,000 households across 16 states. My most important responsibility is taking care of our people so they can take great care of our customers.

Prior to Greenix, I served as CEO of Gabb, a safe tech phone and watch company for kids. I’ve also had the opportunity to be part of incredible leadership teams at Nike, Callaway Golf, the Utah Jazz, and Vivint. All of these experiences shaped how I think about building teams and brands with purpose.

Outside of work, I’m a lucky husband and dad, and I work hard to prioritize time with my family. When I find a free moment, it’s usually spent fly fishing, golfing, or listening to music.

Having grown up in a single-parent home, I’m especially passionate about supporting single and widowed parents through scholarships and job search support. Giving back to this community is deeply personal for me.

People and relationships have always been the most meaningful part of my career. I believe you can build profitable businesses while treating teammates with genuine respect and appreciation.

More than a cellular network—Gabb Wireless is a movement to connect kids and teens to what matters most with safe-tech solutions. Our phones and watches serve as the first step into tech while giving parents peace of mind.

Thought Leadership Strategist | AI, Cybersecurity, National Security | 15-year founder | Social media obsessed | Build your influence to serve at scale.

If you’re reading this, you have influence. Everyone does. It’s just a matter of how adept you are at welding it to get what you need done. Stick around to learn from a thought leadership strategist for startups, executives, and orgs in AI, cybersecurity, national security. 

I’ve seen thought leadership win when marketing impact is dull in an AI-powered world and the customer journey is fragmented and self-driven. 

I’m obsessed with how ideas spread, how people earn trust, and how our brightest minds can serve at scale. 

Equally obsessed with sharing these ideas that I learn in client work and studying the leadership field with all interested in expanding their influence. 

In my work, I advise and create thought leadership toward revenue and influence, and to help clients create a more secure tomorrow. 

At my firm, Persona Media, now 15 years in, my team and I develop and execute visibility strategies, from idea and interview to live thought leadership content. We embed within executive and stakeholder ecosystems, partnering with your organization's comms, product, and policy teams to align with strategy behind what’s being built and align thought leadership to bring about those revenue and influence objectives. 

Every message we craft is grounded in trust, discretion, and a deep respect for the complexity and consequence of their work. A handful of examples of our work: 

Our client engagements often begin with board members in quiet conversations asking our help to make their C-suite comfortable and confident (palatable!) on camera. 

We work alongside crisis comms to adapt statements into something palatable the humans and social platforms. 

We take keynotes from our clients and turn them into TikToks, blogs, articles in major publications that your PR team can work with. 

Our thought leadership content becomes the best performing marketing content on your brand channels.

I am based in Dallas with my brilliant communications strategist and YouTuber husband and two daughters. Here, there’s always a notebook open, books consumed, nerding out over 'the future of,' sci-fi, and tech, cooking avoidance, and the outdoors. 

I teach weekly, speak often, and host the How to Thought Leadership podcast. My first book, coming in 2026, is a reinvention field guide to align on what you want, what the market wants from you, and how to MVP that brand in AI-first world.

If you told me a few weeks ago I’d be cancelling Otter, my favorite AI tool? But a tool with more utility won me over shockingly fast. 

I won’t try OpenClaw despite its helpfulness for managing communication. My learning time is maxed out, and for client communication, there is no room for me-built experiments. 

Lindy has filled a major tool gap: 
Calendar, email, and schedule management 

How I’m using it -  

- Find something on my calendar. Add new events. Find options for recurring meetings. Send meeting invites. Find windows of project time. 

- Monitor my email for client questions, text me to alert, with links back to that email. Draft replies, or at my request, sends email once approved. 

- Records meetings better than Otter - Incredibly actionable and accurate meeting tasks, takeaways 

- Sends me a daily calendar, top cyber and AI security news brief, alerts for news naming my folks. Easily customizable.

But this is the BEST part: 
All that can be done via iMessage (text!)

I’m younger Gen X that absolutely uses text message, phone Slack etc. 

It’s only a few bucks more a month than Otter. 

The cost of change here: Minimal impact. 

Claude Code was able to export my old Otter transcripts so I’m not losing that valuable reference info. It will organize those transcripts in folders by client and done. And be able to refer to them easily. 

Really pleased a few weeks in. 

If you are here for the micro business, we’d love to see that on your roadmap. 

Not an affiliate, just blown away that this kind of functionality is HERE!
