I am the co-founder of the community, Brand Built, a full time business, branding, LinkedIn, networking, and coaching community for business owners, entrepreneurs, and professionals.
I am an experienced business leader and entrepreneur with a successful track record of developing and directing businesses, teams, and functions that drive company growth and positive corporate culture.
I was a CEO—yes, the fancy title we all crave—of a fast-growing company that I started in 2008. By 2012, we were one of the Inc. 500 fastest-growing private companies. In 2018, we sold the company to a Fortune 500 public company for $40MM.
At this point, you’d probably consider me very successful, which I was—financially—but deep down, I felt completely lonely. I was lost, confused, and unsure of who I was anymore.
In 2022, a friend encouraged me to share my journey on LinkedIn. Initially, I received just a few likes and followers. But soon, things took off.
More importantly, I discovered a community of like-minded individuals on similar paths. This led to a collaboration with Nat Berman, and together, we created Brand Built—a one-stop community for all things business and branding.
Today, Brand Built is home to hundreds of successful brand builders, working together to grow their brands.
From the life of a successful CEO to a completely lost person, I now have one goal:
To educate, inspire, and motivate entrepreneurs, small business owners, and struggling professionals by leveraging the power of community networking, business coaching, LinkedIn, and life.
AND by the way, I love hiking!

I've been a part of Darren's Brand Built Community since it first opened. The best part about the group is the networking opportunities. There are so many high-level individuals in every industry out there. I also get a ton of benefits from the educational opportunities. There are valuable courses on how to utilize LinkedIn. And the guest speakers are the Top 1% of LinkedIn creators. If you want to better utilize LinkedIn for your business, I'd highly recommend Darren and Brand Built.”

I've had a fantastic experience with Darren in his community Brand Built. I don't have the biggest business on LinkedIn but he has always been hugely supportive. The seminars are next level as well and offer some of the best instruction that can be found anywhere.
