About Me

Hey there,

Pull up a chair.

I'm Justin. I started my career marketing video games — which sounds way cooler than it was. But it taught me something early: the product is the problem you solve, not the thing you build.

That led me into product management. I spent years deep in B2B SaaS — roadmaps, sprints, launches, the whole thing. I got good at it. Good enough to realize I wanted to build my own things instead of managing someone else's.

So I started AppStream Studio, an AI focused application development studio where we build Generative AI based applications for companies who need to innovate fast. Then I started aiventic.ai, where we're building AI agents for field service management — the kind of work where technology can actually make someone's Tuesday better.

I also started JET Ventures, a holding company for digital and boring businesses. I say “boring” with love. Quarter Oak Communities, Southern Suds, Interport, Dunn Infrastructure Group, The Remodeling Company — these are businesses that do real things for real people. I invest in boring, preferably CRE-backed, businesses.

I've built a lot of things that went nowhere. More than I'd like to admit. But I believe you learn more from shipping something that fails than from planning something that never launches.

These days I talk about all of this on my podcast, Agents of Change, and write about what I'm learning on my blog. Building in public, thinking out loud — that kind of thing.

Recovering product guy. Serial entrepreneur. CRE. BTC. VFL.

If any of this resonates, I'd love to hear from you.

Let's build something,
JT
