CXO/ agory

I've been here since day one,
turning ideas into reality.

My path here wasn't typical. I spent years navigating the intensity of JP Morgan, Merrill Lynch, and Citigroup before diving into fashion e-commerce.

That combination taught me something valuable:
the best solutions happen when business,
engineering, and design actually
talk to each other
instead of past each other.

I think fast,
talk faster,

and yes—my team sometimes needs a moment to catch up. But that's where the magic happens. When you push boundaries and challenge assumptions, breakthrough design follows.

At Agory, I don't just manage design strategy.
I live it.
Every project gets my full attention
because mediocre isn't in my vocabulary.

When I'm not solving digital problems, you'll find me in my garage with a collection of tools that would make a craftsman jealous.

I design and build minimal furniture—
a Japanese-midcentury fusion
that speaks to simplicity and function.

And here's where I draw the line:
staining wood is a crime against nature.

Want dark? Use walnut.
Want light? Use oak.
Let the wood tell its own story.
