About

I started BuildGroup with Jim and Klee in Austin to build and fund tech businesses with modern business models. Before co-founding BuildGroup, I was the CEO of Rackspace, where I grew sales from $1.5 million to over $1.5 billion while creating thousands of jobs, growing its trademarked, high-quality customer service, and accumulating thousands of customers.
