Cam teaches us how to make videos to differentiate ourselves, open doors, and more easily accomplish our goals.
The future of entrepreneurship is the future of humanity.
I’m an entrepreneur/educator making that future brighter by giving founders—actual and would-be founders—learning experiences that light a fire in the synapses and the soul.
My work:
- Minimum Viable Video: cohort-based course teaching video, camera confidence, facilitation
- Corporate, Government, and Higher Ed entrepreneurship programs: Creative Entrepreneurship, Audience Building for Creators, and The Blackstone Launchpad Entrepreneurial Mindset Bootcamp
- 3 Day Startup (2009-2019): 10-year CEO journey scaling in-person startup bootcamp to 50 countries
My students are:
- Entrepreneurs raising $187 million
- Founders accepted to Y Combinator and Techstars with exits to Google and Etsy
- 20,000 learners worldwide including astronauts in Texas, cattle farmers in Australia, and prime ministers in the Caribbean
- Higher ed students and staff at MIT, Harvard, Stanford, and 250 institutions

The project that I’m most passionate about these days is a cohort-based course that teaches entrepreneurs how to make videos that get customers, close deals, and build social capital.
