Building brands that outlast me.
Serial founder. Kind heart, long game. I build brands that make room at the table, and I build them to last. Games for the barrio, a watch for the moments that matter, a voice for lovely humans. A legacy, one brand at a time.

Founder · Bingo Bango L.L.C.
“Build what outlasts you, and lift people up along the way.”
Bingo Bango L.L.C.
One family of brands, built with heart and meant to last.
Bingo Bango L.L.C. · parent company
Built slowly, with care, for the people who use them. That is the legacy.
18+ algorithms and replenishment methods: forecast, turns, order efficiency, JIT — the layer behind ~$710M of managed inventory reduction.
I use agents the way I use replenishment engines: to take exceptions off people and encode the method. Fourth Shift, Monday.com, Salsify, Python, and SQL.

AI · How I actually work
The bench I use to encode methods and ship product. Agents write. Python and SQL hold the truth.
S&OP on the factory system the plants already run.
Cadence and product truth on tools the team already pays for.
I pair in the editor the way I pair on the floor: Claude Code and GitHub Copilot to encode the method, Python and SQL to make it stick.
Anthropic, NVIDIA, Apple developer-track. Editor tools support the method. Capital, service, and network still lead.
By day
By day I run supply chain at Cra-Z-Art. Same values at every stage: steady hands, good people, systems that last.
