👋🏾 I’m a native New Yorker born and raised of Jamaican descent. I'm a proud son of immigrants. I got my drive from my father who is a mechanical engineer and my mother who holds a PhD in library science. Mediocrity is not in my DNA. I pride myself on being a forward thinker, driven, and optimistic. 📈 I’m experienced in data analysis, cloud computing, product management, and operations management. Graduated from SUNY Old Westbury with a major in Psychology and Computer Science. I guess you can say I always wanted to know how computers worked. Both the biological one and the mechanical. 👨🏾‍💻 I am super passionate about product management. I’m a gamer so I gamify the problem finding/solving and reap the reward of customer satisfaction. Product management is all about empathizing with your users, identifying opportunities, and collaborating with others. I’m always searching for new challenges and ways to level up. Never settle. 🎥 I am a gamer, film buff, Sneakerhead, FinTech junkie, and YouTube enthusiast. For fun, I enjoy community organizing, traveling, whisky, DJ’ing, creating content, and reading.

It was during this paddle-posse that I was tasked with finding and buying some race gear as we looked to turn our mate ship into a serious race team.

'Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.' - Confucius Scaling your agency shouldn’t feel impossible. You don’t NEED to stress. It’s not a “requirement” of being an entrepreneur. It just means you don’t have the right system. But you’re probably: ⚠️ Feeling burnout ⚠️ Struggling to grow faster than you’re churning ⚠️ Sick of not spending time with your family But what if, instead: ✔️ Your agency grows without your involvement ✔️ Your family’s not constantly upset at you for spending “all your time” on the business ✔️ You can finally spend more time on your hobbies! I can help. But who am I to say that? I’m Troy Dean, the founder of Agency Mavericks. We've coached thousands of agencies. After working with us, they were able to expand, get more time, and sometimes even leave their businesses successfully. I've lost count of the emails I’ve received over the last 10 years from freelancers and agency owners all over the world thanking me for a blog post, podcast, video, or free templates that helped them (even before they became a paying customer). Most of them never became customers. And that's alright by me. It's a big world, and we're here to pay it forward. So, if you're seriously committed to growing your agency and ready to admit you could use some help, follow me here and I’ll give away all my secrets. Or if you’re looking for some personalized help for YOUR agency… Just go to agencymavericks(.)com to schedule a call. Or click the link in my bio.
