Spartanconsulting.ai
FounderI founded Spartanconsulting.ai to help small and mid-sized businesses utilize artificial intelligence. It began as a one-man-show — sourcing clients, scoping projects, building workflows, and delivering systems end-to-end. As demand grew, I scaled from 1 to 7 team members and evolved from hands-on builder to systems architect and operator.
We built systems that changed how our clients' businesses functioned: AI-powered workflow automation, CRM integrations, lead qualification systems, automated follow-up pipelines, internal dashboards, and AI-assisted content engines. Each engagement succeeded in driving revenue or reducing operational friction.
I led client acquisition, pricing strategy, architecture design, hiring, and quality control. We are on track to generate $128K+ in client value.
Spartanconsulting.ai is more than just a consulting firm. For me, it was a proving ground in sales, leadership, and AI implementation in real-world constraints.

JHR Commodities LLC
FounderBored during the COVID-19 pandemic as a 16-year-old kid in Zoom school, I founded an e-commerce business where I identified pricing inefficiencies across consumer goods markets and utilized bot software to capture supply, reselling product on Amazon FBA, eBay, and Facebook Marketplace.
What started with $2,500 in savings became a multi-six-figure operation generating $250,000+ in revenue. I built sourcing networks, managed high-volume inventory logistics, navigated platform policy risks, handled consumer relations at scale, and made constant capital deployment decisions under volatile conditions.
A 1,500-member reseller community recruited me as a salaried consultant at 17. I still consult on major releases while the operation continues.

Happy Dad
Brand AmbassadorWorked alongside the CEO and regional manager of Happy Dad to expand its operations at the University of Michigan – Ann Arbor.
Identified high-traffic bars, initiated conversations with owners, and helped get Happy Dad stocked and selling. Pushed Happy Dad into social fraternities to reach students at scale, coordinated event-based exposure, and recruited ambassadors to expand the team's reach.
Learned how to sell, build relationships, and grow a brand — one conversation at a time.

This Website
DeveloperNo tutorials, no templates, no Stack Overflow. Just AI tools and the determination to figure it out.
The result is what you're looking at — a full personal website with a custom AI chatbot trained to think and respond in my voice, built from scratch through iterative problem-solving across multiple LLMs. Every decision, from architecture to design, was something I had to understand well enough to direct. The LLMs wrote code. I had to know what to ask for, when something was wrong, and how to push toward what I actually wanted.
From this experience, I have learned that the ability to think clearly, ask precise questions, and learn fast is becoming the most valuable skills in our rapidly changing world.

Friend Sharpens Friend
Co-HostA podcast built on a simple premise: the fastest way to find out what you actually understand is to try explaining it to someone who won't let you get away with surface-level thinking.
He's an aerospace engineer from Portugal and I am an economics and philosophy student from NYC. We think very differently, we're shaped by very different experiences, and that's what makes it work.
Each week, we work through whatever we're learning — philosophy, psychology, physics, strategy, ideas we can't stop thinking about. No scripts, no guests, no production. Just two people using conversation as a tool to sharpen their thinking and hold each other to a higher standard.
