About

I spent 15 years building technology solutions for companies that could justify the investment. Large organizations with dedicated teams, real budgets, and the ability to hire firms like the ones I worked for.

The work was good. The clients were great. But the same thing kept happening.

A business owner would reach out — someone running a 30-person operation, growing fast, doing incredible work. They needed the same kind of solutions my bigger clients had. And almost every time, we couldn't serve them. The engagement was too small. The economics didn't work. They'd get a polite referral to someone else, or a quote that didn't make sense for a company their size.

They'd go back to doing it the hard way.

I watched that happen for years. Good businesses, run by smart people, ready for better tools — but the path to get them just wasn't there. The solutions that could help were built for someone else's budget and someone else's scale.

That's why Clearfield exists. The landscape has shifted. What used to require large teams and long timelines can now be built differently. The solutions that were always out of reach for companies this size aren't anymore.

I started Clearfield to close that gap. One client at a time. On my terms, and on theirs.
