Toward the end of 2022, I made the decision to drop out of community college. I was studying real estate, but I didn't see how that path was going to get me where I wanted to be. I was hungry to start making money, build something of my own, and create a future that didn't depend on following the traditional route.

I had also considered becoming a pilot, but that path didn't work out because of medical certification obstacles related to my ADHD and medication.

At that point, I was running out of options.

I was working at an Amazon warehouse, doing just enough hours to keep my position, while also delivering food through DoorDash. Eventually, I was let go from Amazon because I wasn't meeting the minimum hours required to keep my job. Around the same time, DoorDash was slowing down, and the money I depended on was disappearing.

I had no degree, no professional experience, and no clear career path. I knew I wanted to be successful, but I had no idea where to start.

That's when I discovered tech sales.

I started researching the industry and realized something: there were opportunities to build a high-income career without necessarily having a college degree or years of experience.

I became obsessed with figuring out how to break in.

I studied how to sell, how to interview, how to build a résumé that would get noticed, and how to use LinkedIn and professional networking to get in front of the right people.

I treated getting hired like a sales process itself.

Within three weeks of starting that journey, I landed my first six-figure tech sales job in early 2023, at just 20 years old.

That opportunity completely changed the direction of my life.

For the first time, I had a career with real earning potential. But more importantly, I was developing skills that would become the foundation for everything I would build afterward.

I continued improving as a salesperson, gaining experience, and eventually moved to another technology sales position with higher compensation.

I learned how to communicate, negotiate, build relationships, identify opportunities, and sell. Those skills became some of the most valuable assets I had.

Even while I was building my career in tech sales, I knew I wanted more.

I didn't just want to earn a good salary. I wanted to own businesses, create opportunities for myself, and build something bigger than a paycheck.

That's when I started exploring business acquisitions.

My first focus was smog shops. I saw an opportunity to purchase existing businesses rather than start everything from scratch.

While continuing to work in tech sales, I began acquiring smog shops and learning what it actually takes to operate a business.

From there, I expanded into auto repair and eventually collision repair businesses.

Every acquisition came with new challenges, lessons, and opportunities to grow.

Today, my automotive businesses collectively generate over $600,000 per month in revenue.

That figure is combined business revenue — not personal income or profit. Individual results vary.

Tech sales gave me the foundation, skills, and opportunities to get started. Business ownership has since become the driving force behind my financial success and the lifestyle I'm able to enjoy today.

I owe a tremendous amount to both.

I've always had a passion for cars, but what really drives me goes beyond that.

I have a genuine hatred for mediocrity.

I don't want to settle for an average life or look back one day wondering what I could have accomplished if I had pushed myself harder.

I believe we get one life, and I want to make the absolute most of mine.

That mindset is what pushes me to keep learning, keep building, and keep pursuing bigger opportunities.

I'm not interested in becoming comfortable and stopping. I want to continue challenging myself and seeing how far I can go.

I created Redline because I know what it's like to start with nothing but ambition and no clear direction.

I remember what it felt like to have no experience, no degree, and no idea where my next opportunity would come from.

I also know how much can change when you develop the right skills and learn how to recognize opportunities.

Through Redline, I want to teach people what I've learned firsthand.

From building a professional résumé and landing your first tech sales job to becoming an exceptional salesperson, acquiring your first business, and learning how to scale it.

I'm not here to tell you that success is easy or that everyone will have the same results I did.

I'm here to give you the knowledge, strategies, and playbook that helped me change my life.

What you do with that knowledge is up to you.

I started with DoorDash and Amazon. I found my opportunity through tech sales. I built on that opportunity through business ownership.

And I'm still just getting started.
