He keeps taking on work he has never done before.
In 2019 his brothers asked him to help run the family painting company in Columbus, Ohio. Nothing on the market fit a business that size, so he set up how it would run: the invoicing, the scheduling, the customer communication, and automations that let builders book their own warranty appointments. The operation grew into the hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.
By the end of 2022 he was abroad, building a construction business from the ground up. He negotiated foreign trade deals, imported machinery and equipment, and stood up the whole operation in a market he had to learn from scratch.
He studied Computer Information Systems with a concentration in cybersecurity, and worked in IT. Before Honisto he built and shipped a boxing app to the App Store — his own sport, and a trial run at taking a product all the way to production.
He designed and built Honisto from scratch, starting in December 2025. The first version was live three months later — eighteen-hour days, seven days a week, two days off across the entire initial build.
I’m okay being called crazy if it means I get to change the industry and make a difference with Honisto.
Off the clock
He loves boxing. He travels whenever he can, and enjoys meeting new people and learning about different cultures. He is a huge Notre Dame football fan, just as big on the World Cup, and speaks fluent Spanish.
