I'm From The Future
I've made the mistakes. Learned the hard lessons. Now I help you see around corners and skip the painful parts
From BMX Champion to Agency Growth Strategist
Before I was helping agencies scale to 7–8 figures, I was a
professional BMX freestyler competing at the highest level.
Here's what most people don't realize:
The skills that made me successful in extreme sports; reading
situations split-seconds before they happen, making high-stakes
decisions under pressure, and relentlessly iterating until you nail
the execution, are exactly the skills agencies need to scale.
In BMX, you study the competition, understand the terrain, and build a strategy
before you ever drop in. One mistake and you're done. There's no room for
guessing.
That discipline translated directly when I joined Foundry and helped
scale it from 50 to 500+ employees.
As President, I led the company to the Inc. 5000 list—twice.
But I'd also made every painful mistake in the book: hiring wrong, scaling
too fast, building services nobody wanted, losing great talent to burnout.
Each failure taught me something agencies pay six figures to learn.
Now through Schmidt Consulting Group, I help agencies, consultants, and
B2B service firms compress 10 years of trial-and-error into a clear 90-day
roadmap.
