Thank you for getting in touch. I prioritize ventures I've already committed to. So it could take a while before I reply. I budget time to give back (free advice and helping others). Eventhough I thoroughly enjoy helping people, I stick to that budget. This website is an attempt to scale my advice giving capacity. I charge companies that can afford it for advice, consulting, help, work product, etc. and am available for consulting.
