Hi, Michael here.

This website is my personal online home.

My Eleven-Second Bio

  • I spent 20 years in startups figuring out how to go from idea to paying customers.

  • I started to write and learn in public in September 2021, and launched a weekly newsletter.

  • In 2022, I started teaching students part-time at Rice University how to start a startup and product management.

  • I launched a Personal Monopoly Accelerator in April 2022 to help people clarify their identity and develop an online writing strategy.

  • In September 2022, I signed on as Entrepreneur-in-Residence for 6 months with Write of Passage. Ran a 3-month Creator Accelerator to help top students grow their audiences and to gain a deeper understanding of their needs.

  • In 2023, I ran Personal Cartography, my own 2-month accelerator.

  • I’m exploring these problems.

  • I help high-potential individuals develop strategies for pursuing their best opportunities.
