Exploring what AI can make possible in e-commerce

I spent most of my career in e-commerce, building and running my own stores. My last company was Helium Deploy, which we grew to $35 million in sales in four years before I sold it.

Over the last two years, I have focused much of my time on AI and how it can help e-commerce operators run their businesses better and sell more. I believe this is one of the greatest opportunities of our generation: a single operator can now do work that once required a team and build things that were not possible even a few years ago.

That belief is why I sold my company and committed to exploring what comes next. I am still figuring out exactly where it leads, but I enjoy testing what works in practice rather than relying on ideas that only sound good on a slide.

Two books have helped shape how I think about business: Zero to One by Peter Thiel and The Lean Startup by Eric Ries. I am always happy to talk about either of them, or about AI and e-commerce.
