Hi, I’m Dylan.

A business owner.
In your corner.

I know what it feels like when every decision lands on your desk. I’ve built a business, put my own money behind the marketing, and lived with the results.

The path here

I like figuring things out.
Then making them work.

I started as a software developer at E*Trade. Building things taught me to look closely at how the pieces connect. That way of thinking followed me into marketing and entrepreneurship.

In 2020, I cofounded Upstart Epoxy. We worked on the product, the positioning, the creative, the website, acquisition, and retention as one connected business. It reached 25,000 customers in its first year and was acquired eighteen months after launch.

That experience shapes how I work today. An ad account only tells part of the story. The offer, the margins, the customer experience, and the people doing the work all matter.

My developer background also shapes how I use AI. I bring it into research, creative development, and the workflows behind the marketing. I help you choose where it is useful, put it to work, and keep a person accountable for the result.

Pondir is my marketing consulting practice for small businesses. I help owners understand what is working, decide where to focus, and build a practical plan.

That can mean a focused consultation, advice for your team or existing partners, or hands-on help with a specific project. You work directly with me.

You speak directly with the consultant reviewing your marketing and making recommendations.

An honest point of view.

We look at what the business needs, including where it makes sense to stop spending time or money.

A practical plan.

Work is connected to priorities, assigned to real people, and reviewed against useful measures.
