In 2016, he founded the company Gravel to Castle Accelerator and became known for working with some of the top entrepreneurs in over 20 different industries.

Born in Phoenix, Arizona in 1997, Ken was raised by a single mother. He primarily grew up in Scottsdale, Arizona. He graduated from the Jesuit catholic high school, Brophy College Preparatory. Ken decided not to pursue the route of going to college and finding a job in the corporate world, and instead decided to pursue a career as an entrepreneur at a young age.

Ken became the marketing director of a multi-million dollar property management company at age 19. He then started his first company, Gravel to Castle Accelerator, in late 2016. His company quickly gained recognition (Forbes, Future Sharks, Influencive, etc.) for the work they were doing for well-known consultants, authors, and motivational speakers. Ken has been credited to the success of many of the top entrepreneurs who sell courses, services, and online programs.

He eventually shifted the company's primary offer to selling online programs that teach the latest marketing and sales strategies, which then led to Ken starting his career in speaking to live audiences at conferences and events.
