Fueling the Agent Engine

I've spent the last decade chasing the same thread: how do you make powerful technology accessible to everyone?

It started at Uber in 2016. I figured out how to sell opportunity — driver acquisition, in-person sales, scaling projects across 5 markets. Over 1,000 drivers onboarded. That's where I learned how growth works at scale — how to find leverage, how to build systems that compound, and how to move fast without breaking the things that matter.

Then Ritual, then Thumbtack via the Setter acquisition. Merchant growth, team management, partnerships. Closed $1.3M in home services with a team of 15 BDRs hitting 100% quota. Every stop taught me something different about building and selling.

Then I went down the crypto rabbit hole. I co-founded Underdog Protocol to make digital assets accessible via API. We grew to $1.5M SaaS ARR with 250+ customers. Then we built Griffain — an AI-powered super app for crypto on Solana. Consumer app with 80K users, $22M ARR, and $20M in volume. The idea was simple: you should be able to search anything and do anything onchain in natural language. Personalize your agent, and let it work for you.

That journey led to MoonPay acquiring us in 2025. Now I'm here working on the next chapter: giving AI agents access to the operating system for modern money movement.

The pattern I keep seeing is this: the future belongs to autonomous agents that can operate in financial markets, execute complex strategies, and do it all without human babysitting. We're building the rails for that future.

The agent engine is warming up. Let's see where it goes.
