What I'm building
Community
No Code Founders
The largest no-code community in the world. Practical tools, setups, and guides for building and growing a business without writing code. I founded it, sold it, and came back as CEO because I wasn't finished with it.

Tiny Empires
A newsletter for people who want a profitable business more than a logo on a pitch deck. Real stories of how small founders actually grew, with none of the highlight-reel nonsense.

Sola
A suite of software for the church: websites, websites, giving, and church management. I help manage relationships with churches, alongside the CEO Kyle. This is meaningful work for the long-term.

I spent years building businesses the bootstrapped way: no team, no outside money, just me and the right tools. Six of them ended in an exit.
The biggest was No Code Founders, which grew into the largest no-code community in the world, with more than 38,000 members and sponsors like Notion, Squarespace, and Xero. The work has been featured in the New York Times and Fortune. I sold it, missed it, and came back as CEO to build it properly for the long haul.
Now my focus is simple: independent businesses I care about, built to last rather than to flip. That's No Code Founders, that's Tiny Empires, and that's the church software I help grow at Sola.
I'm based in the UK. When I'm not building, I'm usually parenting, reading, or somewhere in church history.
