I'll be upfront: I don't have a startup idea I'm married to. No pitch deck, no roadmap, no investors lined up.

What I do have is the drive to build things, break them, learn fast, and iterate. I'm looking for someone to do that with.

The goal isn't to launch the next unicorn in 90 days. The goal is to find the right person to build with long term — and the only way I know how to do that is to actually work together, not just vibe on a call.

What a cofounder trial looks like to me:

• A few weeks of actually building something together — doesn't matter how small
• Testing how we communicate, disagree, and make decisions
• Seeing if we complement each other or clash
• No pressure, no equity talk yet — just real work

What I'm looking for:

• Someone who can hack things together and ships before it's perfect
• Comfortable with ambiguity — no idea means more creative freedom, not a problem
• Has strong opinions but holds them loosely
• Gets energized by problems, not just excited about the idea of a startup

What I'm not looking for:

• Someone who needs a fully baked idea before they engage
• Idea-only people (I need someone who builds, not just brainstorms)
• Anyone whose first question is about equity or valuation

Before you DM me, answer this: What's the last thing you built or shipped, even if it was tiny or embarrassing?

If you have an answer to that, let's talk.
