Building things.
Living life.
Loving local.
Hey, I'm Shane. I build businesses, share the places I go, cook a whole lot of food, and believe there's something pretty special about supporting the people and places around us.
Just a guy from Fond du Lac trying new things and sharing what I learn.

A little about me
I'm not here to pretend I've got it all figured out.
I'm from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. I work hard, love spending time with my family, and have always been curious about what I could build next. From learning business skills after struggling in school to starting websites, local media, and a coffee brand, I've learned that you don't have to have everything figured out to get started.
When I'm not working on something new, I'm usually cooking, traveling with my wife Jaci, biking, playing disc golf, walking the dog, or checking out a local business. Cruises are a favorite, and I'm always up for a new adventure.
This site is where all of it comes together. Not just the businesses, but the actual life behind them.
