Early on, I learned a crucial lesson ~

Building companies leads to unparalleled avenues of opportunity.

I built my first software company when I was 18 where we raised hundreds of thousands from investors. Almost exactly a year later, on October 2022, it was acquired by a $50m company and integrated with their 1M+ userbase.

Then in 2024, I started Halation – an empire that is building & buying internet companies. Our first portfolio company was Journey+ which was built, scaled, and sold to private equity in 3 months. In the following eight months, we incubated three more companies with incredible operators.

I share my learnings publicly on Twitter and YouTube.
