Businesses I've Built and Led

Ventures, turnarounds, and missions that mattered

Shredding Hunger

CTO | 2023–Present

As Chief Technology Officer, I helped transform this food focused nonprofit into a national player. From managing product procurement and GS1 compliance to deploying IT infrastructure and web strategy, I brought order and scale to the chaos. Our shelf-stable cheese and pizza lines now support food banks across the country.

Otter Foods

Founder | 2023–Present

Created a retail brand focused on sustainable, healthy cheese based products. I led product strategy, ecommerce integration, and business ops. Otter Foods serves both retail customers and institutions looking for long shelf life, nutrient rich food options.

EscapeEC

Co-Founder | 2016–2024

Co-founded a live escape room experience that became a local success. I handled technical integration, marketing, POS systems, and initial space buildout. It remains operational today under local management.

Primpel Ecosystem

Founder & Managing Director | 2010–Present

A business ecosystem housing ventures in cybersecurity, consulting, real estate, and IT infrastructure. I’ve consulted for 50+ companies, helped launch startups, and offered strategic guidance to owners seeking efficiency and growth.

TidyUpEC

Founder | 2017

Founded and ran a small scale professional cleaning company, handling client onboarding, staffing, scheduling, and payments. It served both commercial and residential clients before transitioning ownership.

Cedar Creek Construction

Co-Founder | 2005–2008

Partnered in a construction and masonry business. Managed small crews across multiple trades, developed budget and bid systems, and oversaw procurement. The business gave me my first taste of full operational ownership.
