I didn't know his name.
I just knew the job
wasn't done.
This isn't a cold application. There's a story first — and it says more about how I work than anything I could put on a resume.
I was leading the escalation team for residential energy at Tesla when a customer came in with a project that had been buried in PG&E bureaucracy for months. Complex utility coordination, nothing moving, nobody taking ownership. I took ownership. Mapped the process, made the calls, pushed it through — not because it was easy, because it was the job.
That customer was Domenic Pacini. I didn't know he was a founder of Race Communications. It didn't matter at the time. What mattered was getting his project done. It was only after — reading about what Race is building, what they stand for, how they operate — that I understood why the way I work fit something he already believed in.
Race is local, accountable, and refuses to hide behind a national call center when something breaks. That's not a value proposition I found in a job description. That's a culture I recognized. So when the SMB Manager role opened, I applied. Then I built this.
The resume got the conversation started. This is the rest of what I wanted to say.
