Portfolio Entrepreneur / Inventor / 3 U.S. Patents

I design products, build them and take them to market.

Founder of Poily, the go-to-market platform behind Doerfy, BigTopa, GoalGauntlet and Blending101. My craft is data visualization and UI/UX design, together.

Delicious UI/UX. Delectable data visualization. AI is the icing.

About Poily

The platform and the portfolio

Poily is short for points of interest, and it comes in two parts. The Poily platform covers the SaaS go-to-market points of interest for non-technical and AI-enabled developers. AI has made building a product easy. Getting it to market is still hard, and the Poily platform makes that easy too. The Poily portfolio is where we brand our own products, the ones we dogfood the platform on.

The Poily portfolio

Three points of interest

The Poily portfolio has three brand families. Each has its own DNA, and it shows in every part of the design and experience.

Productivity & life hacking

DNADesign, visualize and do the life you truly desire.

A life-design system: a persistent AI coach, a framework with the tools to execute it, and a practice that compounds over time. Two free tools let you start today.

Building digital & IRL communities

DNALess friction and fragmentation. More fit and flow.

An engagement, marketing and monetization platform for building communities online and in real life. We take it to market one vertical at a time, with more to come.

Health & wellness

DNAGet more life in your years.

Products that help people take charge of their own health: what you eat, the habits you keep and how you train.

Craft

Data visualization and UI/UX design, in one person

Data visualization makes information clear. UI/UX design makes it usable. For nearly 20 years I have brought the two together to build visually digestible data products people come back to. I add AI to products that are already good without it.

My passion

I am most passionate about health and wellness

I have been hacking health and fitness optimization my entire adult life, and sharing what works with anyone who would listen. What you eat, the habits you keep and how you train your body do more to determine your health than anything else.

Practice

2024 USAPL Masters Raw (Tested) Bench Press National Champion

I train and compete at a high level as a demonstration of the symbiotic relationship between food and fitness. After a year of competing in the powerlifting bench press with much success but limited progress, I am returning to competition in 2027 with a coach and my eyes on the national record. I have also ramped up my sprint training and may compete in 2027 as well. Stay tuned.
