MY BACKGROUND

Entrepreneur, Leader, Founder

After 25+ years leading technology companies in SaaS and cybersecurity, I founded CareFortis and own Hallmark Homecare franchise in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill region. Over the years, I built teams, scaled systems, and worked on products that had to be flawlessly under pressure.

These care-driven ventures were born from personal experience, witnessing firsthand how overwhelming it can be for families to navigate senior care, make the right decisions, and find people they can truly trust. This isn’t a side project or a feel-good pivot. It’s the most challenging and meaningful problem I’ve ever tackled  and I’m bringing everything I’ve learned about building scalable, reliable technology to an industry that deserves far better solutions.

MY WHY

Kindness, Purpose, and Giving Back

Three things keep me grounded every day.

I want seniors to age with dignity, safely and comfortably in their own homes, not in a facility unless that’s truly their choice. I want families to feel peace of mind, knowing their loved ones are cared for with compassion and professionalism. And I want caregivers to be respected, supported, and rewarded for the essential work they do.

At the heart of it all are my values: kindness, purpose, and giving back. This isn’t about disrupting an industry for the sake of innovation; it’s about restoring humanity to care, fixing what’s broken, and building something people can genuinely trust.

OUTSIDE OF THE OFFICE

A Little More About Me

I’m originally from the UK, where I earned my Bachelor’s in Computer Science from the University of Greenwich in London. I later completed my Master’s in Information Technology Management and Business at Webster University in St. Louis, USA.

Outside of work, I’m a foodie who loves exploring new flavors, an avid reader, traveler, and hiker, and someone who believes in balance through fitness and staying active. And when I’m not building companies or chasing ideas, you’ll find me cheering for Chelsea FC, a loyal fan since the age of five.

Today, I call Chapel Hill, North Carolina home. I live here with my wife, Jami, and our dog, Remy, and over the years this community has become deeply personal to me. The people here matter,  their stories, their families, their wellbeing, and I’m committed to building something that truly serves them with care, respect, and purpose.
