I'll tell you what I see.
I help founders get unstuck: product, sourcing, launch, and the systems behind them. Need a factory found or a launch planned? Can do.
Co-founded GAMAGO in 2001: 2,500 products, thousands of stores, a $6.4M peak year, sold in 2017. Since 2018, Murmmr, a luxury objects studio. Contact Me.

Murmmr™
Murmmr makes luxury objects for the home. Crystal poured in Czechia, brass milled in Bavaria, blackened oak finished here in San Francisco. Our newest, The Object: Cigar, launched in July and is now at Kirby Allison and in Cigar Journal's autumn issue.
Consulting
// Special Projects
Three ways I work with consumer brands: AI systems that give a small team its week back, a fractional head of product & sourcing, and launch advisory for small object brands. Direct, actionable, no decks. The first conversation is on me.
GAMAGO®
I co-founded GAMAGO in 2001 & ran it for sixteen years: over 2,500 SKUs & millions of products sold in thousands of stores worldwide. Peak year $6.4M. Sold the company in 2017.
Media
Microclimate is my interview show on YouTube: ten minutes with interesting people, one take, no edits. Lately Josh Harris of Trick Dog, Kristina Jetton of The Sea Ranch Lodge & Supervisor Stephen Sherrill. Plus recent press in KTVU, the SF Chronicle, the SF Examiner & Cigar Journal.
Stuff I Make
I like to make all sorts of stuff. I'll take a crack at flame-treated shelving and a terrazzo sink organizer. Cooking up fried chicken sandos, woodworking, a great cup of coffee, metal working, latchhooked Lil' Bub carpets: I'm crafty!
