🏆 Top Charts 6x 🍎 1m+ App Installs🏘️ 100m in Marketplace Transactions 💰1m+ Subscriptions

I help founders figure out what to build, what to prioritize, and how to turn an idea into a product people actually use and pay for.

I’ve spent the past 6 years launching and growing consumer apps, AI products, and marketplaces. I started Blupalms at 21 after building and selling my first app in college, and I still own and operate apps myself today.

Here are some of the results:

🏆 Multiple App Store chart placements
📲 1M+ downloads across products I’ve worked on
💰 $100M+ processed through marketplaces I’ve built
🚀 One of my own apps has passed 500,000 downloads
⭐ 100% Job Success, Top Rated Plus, and 100+ Upwork projects

Most founders do not need someone to immediately start building. They need someone who can help them answer the important questions first.

Is the idea actually good? What does the first version need? What should wait? How should it make money? Why are users dropping off? What should the team work on next?

That is where I work best.

My main focus is product consulting. I look at the idea, market, user experience, business model, and data, then turn that into a clear plan your team can execute.

I can help with:

🎯 Product Strategy
Positioning, MVP scope, feature prioritization, core product loops, and roadmaps.

🔍 Product Audits
A direct breakdown of what is working, what is not, and what is standing between your product and growth.

📊 Analytics and Growth
Onboarding, activation, retention, monetization, paywalls, funnels, and experimentation.

🎨 UX Direction
Making sure every screen and flow has a purpose and supports the larger business goal.

🚀 Launch Strategy
App Store positioning, launch planning, early user acquisition, and submission support.

🧭 Ongoing Product Leadership
Working with your team as an ongoing product advisor to prioritize the roadmap, review execution, and make better decisions.

If you also need design or development, I can bring in the senior team I have built over the past 6 years. I stay involved and continue leading the product direction, but engineering is there to support the strategy, not replace it.
