Explore the Ventures of Knup
These are the digital businesses I’ve built or backed under the Knup umbrella.
Most are powered by automation, tech, process, systems and hustle — not big teams.
Current Ventures
These are the active business ventures I’m running under Knup LLC. Each one is built to scale with smart systems, automation, and domain strategy. Some are small experiments, others are long-term brands — but they all reflect how I build. Explore each one below to see what I’m working on right now.

Active Friends & Family Projects
These are sites I host, support, or help run for people close to me. Sometimes it’s my dad’s blog. Sometimes it’s a friend’s idea I believe in. They might not be part of the core business, but they’re part of the story.
