Experience
BIOCAT SOLUTIONS - Founder / Owner
January 2019 - Present
MORE is a plant inoculant also known as biostimulant, that contains a proprietary blend of hundreds of species of microorganisms. This abundance of microbial life provides multiple benefits to plants and the grow medium.
In 2019 I started running plant trials in Los Angeles with this Biostimulant product which back then had no name. Once we proved the products effectiveness on plants I built a small team and started a company called Biocat Solutions. We called our first product MORE, and currently sell to some of the leading indoor and greenhouse farms in California.

ROGUE STATUS / DTA - BRAND MANAGER
January 2007 - January 2013
I was the third employee to join Rogue Status a few months after the brand launched its first collection through UNDFTD in Santa Monica, CA.
My role as Brand Manager in a small company meant I managed all aspect of the business from sales to product development, recruitment, brand partnerships, athlete management and digital marketing.
We grew the business substantially in the first year and secured a second round of investment from a larger clothing and distribution company. Within two years of the company’s birth we had secured accounts with many of the biggest action sports retailers in North America.
During my seven years at Rogue Status / DTA we collaborated with leading companies including Scion (Toyota), Arbor Snowboards, Stussy, UNDFTD, Snap-On Tools, Incase and Black Scale, to name some highlights.
