I build the operating systems behind $3M+ painting companies

Every month there is a new CRM feature, a new all-in-one platform, a new AI agent. They are impressive, and each one does something useful.

The thing I hear most from painting company owners is that it has become a lot. They feel overwhelmed and like they are falling behind. The tech bill is already expensive. They get some value from it, but it doesn't feel easy, it keeps getting more complicated, and it rarely works the way they expected when they signed up.

That is the work paintOS does, and it is why I do it. I like solving puzzles, and a growing painting company has plenty of them. Taking those problems off the owner's plate is work I love.

I started on this problem as marketing director of a $10M painting company. I couldn't trust a single number, because none of the systems talked to each other. I'm an engineer by training, so I spent three years wiring the CRM, estimating, production and accounting together while the company grew to $21M. Other owners asked for the same setup, and that became paintOS.

My father, a PE teacher, passed away when I was 21. Seven hundred people came to his funeral, and seeing how many lives he had touched is where my purpose came from. I champion the relentless pursuit of purpose, and painting company owners are the people I want to serve. They invest in their crews and their towns, and they deserve a business that runs on more than their own late nights.
