Hey, I'm the Person Behind RebootKC

Self-taught web developer since 2009. Small business owner. Helper of other entrepreneurs.

The Short Version

Back in 2009, I needed a website for a business idea. Every agency wanted $5k+ upfront. I wasn't about to fork over that kind of money for a design, so I did what made sense to me: I taught myself how to build websites.

Over the years, I developed a knack for SEO and branding too. Turns out, when you can't afford to hire experts, you become one. Those skills led to two 6-figure exits from affiliate sites I built from scratch. Today, I run my own ecommerce store alongside RebootKC.

At the end of the day, I just want to help people get over that first hurdle of getting their business online. And if you're not even there yet? I can help you get to that point too.

The Longer Version

It started in 2009. I had a business idea, needed a website, and got quoted prices that made my stomach turn. Five thousand dollars? For a website? I couldn't justify it. So I opened up a code editor and started figuring it out myself.

What started as necessity turned into a genuine skill set. I learned HTML and CSS. I got obsessed with SEO - figuring out how to get sites to actually rank on Google. As for design? My mentor Tim S., CEO of MatteBlack.com, told me over and over that my designs sucked. Until one day they didn't. That persistence paid off: I built affiliate sites that led to two 6-figure exits. Today I still run my own ecommerce store.

Along the way, I built sites for friends. Then friends of friends. Then I realized there were a lot of people like me: talented at what they do, trying to start something real, but stuck because they didn't have a professional online presence.

The traditional agency model is broken for small businesses. Charging $5k+ upfront makes sense if you're a funded startup or an established company. But what about the person who's still working their day job while building something on the side? What about the entrepreneur who has skills but not capital? I've been that person. Multiple times.

That's why I built RebootKC with a different model. I'll do the work upfront because I believe in what you're building. You pay monthly because that's what makes sense when you're just getting started. And if it doesn't work out, you can leave. No hard feelings.

What I Actually Believe

Not values I made up for a website. Things I actually live by.

People Over Profit

I'm building relationships, not a client roster. If I can't help you, I'll tell you. If someone else can do it better, I'll point you there.

Just Be Honest

No hidden fees. No confusing contracts. No overselling. If something will take longer or cost more, I'll tell you before it happens.

Actually Respond

When you reach out, you'll hear back. Not from a bot. Not in 3-5 business days. From me. Usually within a few hours.

Kansas Through and Through

Born in a small town, living in the suburbs. This is home and I want to see local businesses win.

The First 100

I'm building RebootKC with my first 100 customers. Not for them. With them. You're not just getting a website. You're helping shape what this becomes.

Every person who signs up in this early phase is someone I'll know by name. Someone whose business I'll actually understand. Someone who can text me when something's not working.

Once I hit 100 customers, things might change. I might have to bring on help. Might have to be more structured. But for now, while I'm still building this thing, you get direct access to the person doing the work.

Why Kansas?

Because it's home. I was born in a small town here, and I've lived in the suburbs my whole life. I've seen the entrepreneurial spirit in every corner of this state. And I know there are hundreds of people with great ideas who just need someone to help them get online.

Being local means I can actually meet you. Grab lunch. Look at your current setup. Understand your business in a way that's hard to do over email. That matters to me.

And honestly? I want to see Kansas businesses succeed. Every new small business that makes it strengthens the community I live in. That's motivation you can't fake.
