As a repeat founder and operator, he relaunched and scaled a DTC yoga brand, raised seed capital, and established premium partnerships while driving international expansion that grew one business to 30% of revenue (~$40M). Known for pragmatic workflow optimization and strategic carrier negotiations, he also builds operational dashboards and API integrations that turn cross-border complexity into predictable performance.
