From simple chat to smarter business

Move up the AI value chain.

Most companies start with individual employees using free-tier AI for basic tasks. The real advantage comes when AI understands the business - and ultimately helps the business act.

Where most small businesses are today

Stage 1:Basic Chat

AI knows what you tell it.

Useful for individual tasks. Limited by the context a person adds to each prompt.

At 30, I left the Big 4 consultancies to start MetaPhase - an IT implementation partner serving our country's largest organizations. I led the company from $0 to ~$90 million in annual revenue with a team of 350 full-time technology consultants.

MetaPhase was recognized as 6× Best Place to Work, 4× Inc. 5000, and was the 14th fastest-growing consultancy in the US. I was named 40 Under 40 by the WBJ, Exec of the Year by Professional Services Council, & more based on these results.

At MetaPhase, we were among the very earliest to adopt AI to improve how we sold and operated. It was the most fun I've had in tech since the internet!

After a substantial exit in early 2026, I started Breakaway for-the-love-of-the-game: making technology accessible and affordable to small and mid sized companies so they can thrive.
