I’m in early discussions to help a private equity firm launch a trucking division - asset based carrier. They can enter the market with 20 trucks and they have the financial backing for more if needed. Dry van trailers based in Houston, TX. We’re looking for dedicated contract work w/ set lanes. I’d like to set up in-person meetings with anyone who has available work for some or all of this capacity. I would also appreciate any leads or introductions. Thank you for your consideration.

Right now looks like a very good opportunity to be an asset based carrier. The rates are high, capacity is shrinking and work is plentiful. Operating expenses are very high so that’s still a problem. Seems like less OTR guys on the road too. Maybe that’s the opportunity. In a world of AI, someone still needs to do the work in the physical world. Autonomous trucks are here. That can be built into the business model.

There’s a lot of alpha in putting your ego aside by being willing to be cringe, willing to fail in public, willing to ask for what you want and face rejection, etc.

My girl really makes our home a home. Breakfast beautifully made and served. Always made with love, always tastes delicious. I’m so blessed to have a woman like this. We’re expecting our first child in the next few weeks. She will be the most incredible mother to our child. I’ll work my hardest and do everything I can to provide them with the life they deserve.

The mentality and dedication it takes to be a high level athlete is the best life lesson a young person can learn. You learn to expect greatness from yourself. You learn that success doesn’t come overnight, it comes from years of hard work and constant training. This directly translates to life and business.
Ken Griffin on the single factor he looks for when hiring at Citadel: "show me an athlete who did well academically." "an athlete because they know what it takes to win and they've had to experience loss." talent is everywhere. what's rare is someone who knows how to lose, recover, and still perform at a high level. same thing separates profitable traders from everyone else.

Average attracts average. You want exceptional? Be freaking exceptional. Be wildly delightful. Be incredibly optimistic. Ruin them with your enthusiasm. Make them wonder. What makes you so different? Bang down every door until there are no doors left. Build your own door. Run through it. Don’t worry about making the “right” decision. Make the decision right. You’ve only got so much time left here. It is fleeting and going faster than you realize. Every single day matters. It matters. You matter. So make the absolute most of it. You’ve got nothing to lose except yourself. I hope you do. Lose yourself. Find yourself again. Don’t look back.

When someone invests their time into you, or invests funds into your company, they’re putting their trust in you. They’re putting their faith in you. They’re telling you they believe in you. There will be no greater feeling than proving these people right. There will be no greater feeling than returning that trust with enormous ROI. I have an intense desire to prove these people right. I can’t describe this feeling. It’s an overwhelming, intense sense of obligation and desire to show these people they’re made the smartest decision of their lives. They’ve made the right bet.

They can doubt you, many people will. They can look at your resume and label you the best thing since sliced bread, many people will. The only thing that really matters is results. What have you built? How many customers have you generated? How many sales have you made? You can spend time building something, introduce it to the market and nobody decides to use it. That tells you all you need to know.

We’re bringing a solution to the auto transport industry that doesn’t exist. In 2026 we shipped 2,000 vehicles for 1,400 customers. We’ve proven it on a small scale with a small team, AI, limited resources and close to zero marketing budget. Still generated $1m sales revenue in 2025. I’ve been in this game as a driver, 6 truck fleet owner, broker and now technology builder. I’m an expert in this industry. 18 years of experience in every level of the auto transport game. You can’t easily replicate that. Highs and lows. Successes and failures. Lessons that you can’t read about, you have to go through them to understand. Now we have multiple commitments for capital that will help us scale our business. We’re introducing a better experience for individual customers and small dealerships who need to ship their vehicles. This industry is still stuck in the “taxi” era. Manual phone calls, manual quotes, posting to load boards, emails, phone tag, no GPS tracking, no idea who your driver is, and other legacy processes that should have been left in the 1990’s. It’s shocking. We’re working on modern digital solutions to provide an experience consumers expect in 2026.

The most important people to have on your team are “doers”. The people who make it happen. They don’t easily get discouraged at the first sign of a set back. You can be the most intelligent person but if you don’t have the will to execute against all odds, you’re not the difference maker.

the part nobody talks about in entrepreneurship is all the setbacks you experience. What matters is how you handle the setbacks. Dust yourself off, get back up and keep going. If it was easy, everyone would do this. The reality is, 99% of people don’t have this level of resilience. When things get hard, the first signs of a hurdle, they’re out. The rewards are massive if you can stay alive and bring the vision to life. It takes many hard years. You might feel close to being dead. When you feel that, you just have to get up the next morning and keep going. The only time you’re out of the game is when you quit. It’s not easy. Stop expecting it to be easy. Start expecting the hard path. You will never build anything if you’re someone who wants to quit at the first sign of a setback.

I had an angel investor committed for $200k. He was bought in. He believed in the vision. We went back and forth negotiating terms for weeks. Before the final signature, he had to run it past his business partner. They were investing together. His partner didn’t believe in AI. He wasn’t convinced we could automate the shipping process with AI agents. They’re traditional businessmen. They have an office full of employees and they’re successful in what they do. I respect it. But we’re building different businesses. They pulled out. I was disappointed. But I learn from this experience and I move forward. Onwards it is. Not everyone will see the vision but I see the vision clearly. I need investor funds but it has to be the right investor. It has to be someone that believes and buys in. They have to agree that the world will be different in 3-5 years. Vehicle shipping will be found through AI systems, not Google AdWords. Ai agents will handle processes and there will be more visibility in the vehicle shipping industry. An uber-like experience. You’ll book a shipping order online. A carrier will be auto-assigned based on data, not through loadboards. You’ll be able to see your truck arriving to the pickup location. You’ll track your vehicle from pickup to delivery. Payment will be charged at time of delivery. You’ll know exactly when the vehicle is being delivered. Carrier payment will be instant after verified delivery. This is what I see. This is the experience we’re building. This is a small setback, but it’s just a setback. I’m in the arena. I’m never out of the game.

Spending this Saturday morning taking a class on preparing for child birth. I don’t have much knowledge about the process so I have a lot to learn. I want to be a supportive partner during this process so I’m here putting in the work. We’re nearing our due date and I mainly have feelings of excitement but I also have a slight feeling of nervousness. I grew up with loving, supportive parents who tried their best for me so I’m starting this journey with a good example of how I can give my kid a good life. I’ll learn as I go and try to be the best father I can be so. I want to give my son the best chance to succeed in life and be the best possible human he can be. I want him to follow his dreams and be a nice human to others.

People don't understand how obscenely large the logistics industry is. Worldwide logistics revenue is $11 trillion per year.
People don’t really understand how obscenely large the oil and gas industry actually is. Worldwide oil revenue is $4 trillion per year. Every year the oil industry collects more money than the US government. Not the US military, the entire US government. Every year the oil industry allocates $850 billion of capex to new projects, and those new projects increase the oil supply by about 1.8%. It costs half a trillion dollar a year, for every 1% of growth. Meanwhile, people think the $500 billion datacenter buildout is “unprecedented”. A year with $500 billion capex means a downturn and mass layoffs in the oil industry. It’s just a different scale. The same industry sells $2 trillion a year of gas. So $6 Trillion of revenue in 2025, and projected $8 trillion of revenue for 2026. There is a reason that the world has multiple “petrostates” with huge sovereign wealth funds, but no other type of mono-economy country with giant trillion dollar liquid funds. Many countries, such as Saudi Arabia produce oil and gas at 70% profit margins. So huge volumes and huge margins. That’s how you build multiple multitrillion dollar sovereign wealth funds that own a meaningful chunk of all global equities. These countries make huge equity returns in times of stability and huge oil returns in times of volatility. My point here, is that the datacenter capex can go much higher. It’s currently $6-700 billion, but for a major boom it could be double this. And the “oh noe! We need lots more datacenter plumbers!” is just a complete joke, when there’s an industry 10X bigger that literally does nothing but lay pipes everywhere. Embarrassing ignorance. Hyperscalers are still only using cashflow, and still each sitting on $100 billion cash reserves. They need to get off the pot and go and build some stuff, because it’s difficult to take them seriously watching them flap about in “hardware” aka heavy industry, for their fourth year.

It’s Monday morning. It’s the beginning of a new week and another chance to pursue greatness. Greatness looks different for everyone. For me, greatness means: building a great business, being physically fit, having a great relationship with family & friends, being in love, continuously learning, and having a relationship with God. My child is entering the world soon. I want to make him proud. I want to be a great example. I want to teach him the things I’ve learned and help him have every advantage in life. I have to be great so my son can see that. Lead by example. We’re pursuing greatness. Love, health, wealth and happiness.

Saturday afternoon on Allen Parkway in Houston, TX. I love events like this. Free, fun, and it brings the Houston community together. Get outside, enjoy the weather, meet some people, make some friends.

I started running in 2025 and improved my mile time to 7:30. It’s not the best, I want to be better and faster, but I’m happy with the improvement, progress, consistency and dedication. In 2026 I’ve continued my running journey but I’ve dealt with small injuries and setbacks. I’ve fallen behind on my running progress but I’ve never been out of the race. There’s always going to be setbacks and hurdles in life and business; the important thing is to stay in the race, keep working, keeping improving, keep dedication and increase consistency. Improvement and progress requires effort and work. I love the hard work. I love the journey of improving. I love the journey of competing against myself to reach my full potential in life, business and athletics. Consistency and dedication leads to success in business and life.
