I Wasn’t Supposed to Be Good at Relationships. So I Built the System I Always Needed.
I used to forget the people I met and the opportunities they brought. Here’s why I built a tool to fix it, after years of failing and pivoting.

I’ve been a tech geek since I was 13.
I taught myself to code. I taught myself English.
Back then, I didn’t think I needed people.
I was introverted, shy, and happiest in my own world of screens and code.
I never imagined I’d grow up to become a salesperson, a head hunter, a founder, or a community builder.
But life has a way of forcing you out of your comfort zone.
The Hard Lessons That Changed Me
When rock bottoms hit business challenges, relationships breaking down, I realized something:
Knowing how to code wasn’t enough.
Knowing how to talk wasn’t enough either.
I had to learn how to communicate. Really communicate.
It wasn’t easy.
I sucked at relationships: family, friendships, partnerships, all of it.
Not because I didn’t care, but because I was so focused on building new things, meeting new people, chasing new goals…
I forgot to nurture what I already had.
I don’t have a great memory.
I forget things fast including the people I’ve met.
And in a world where relationships drive everything, that’s a painful weakness.
The Moment It Clicked
Over the years I’ve played every role where connections matter:
At ADI Digi, I've built a tech company and juggling clients, partners, and deals.
At GPW, I’ve led a women’s community of 1,600+ members and hosted 100+ events.
As a founder, I've tried to grow mine.
In every role, I kept seeing the same pattern:
We meet amazing people.
We have inspiring conversations.
We promise to follow up.
But then… life happens.
The moment fades.
And those warm connections turn cold.
It’s not because we don’t care.
It’s because our brains can only hold so much. (Studies say we can maintain 150–200 connections at most.)
But what about the people we’ll need to remember in 5 years? 10 years?
There was no system for that.
I Tried to Fix It (And Failed. Again and Again.)
I built a digital business card. Great for sharing info. Useless for remembering people.
I built a personal CRM. Too manual, another admin job in an already packed day.
I built a basic contact manager. Organized names, but didn’t give context or help me know why those names mattered.
Each version taught me something.
Each failure brought me closer to the real insight:
I didn’t need another database.
Or another to-do list.
I needed a companion.
A tool that could remember how, when, and why I connected with someone and help me keep that relationship alive.
What If We Could Remember Everyone?
Of course, no one can remember everybody.
But what if we could?
What if you never forgot where you met someone, what you talked about, what they needed, or how you could help each other?
What if following up didn’t feel like work, but a natural part of the relationship?
That’s the tool I’ve been building.
Not just for me.
But for every founder, sales pro, recruiter, and community builder I’ve talked to who feels the same pain.
It’s Not Another CRM. It’s Your Networking Assistant.
This isn’t about collecting more contacts.
It’s about keeping the ones you already have alive.
It helps you:
Capture new connections instantly (business cards, QR codes, LinkedIn)
Enrich profiles with company info, job titles, and AI insights, hours of research done in seconds
See how, when, and where you met someone
Draft warm, natural follow-ups without overthinking
Focus on relationships that matter
It’s still in beta. It’s not perfect.
But it’s already helping people stop losing the connections they worked so hard to build.
Let’s Build Better Networks Together
This isn’t just my tool. It’s for all of us who believe relationships are our most valuable asset.
I’d love for you to try it.
Tell me what works. Tell me what doesn’t.
Help me shape it into something that serves us all.

Because your network isn’t just names in a contact list.
It’s opportunities, friendships, partnerships and they deserve to last.
