You bring the decision. I bring the clarity.

I advise beauty, fashion, consumer brand, and sports management leaders on high-stakes decisions where culture, technology, and visibility intersect, helping them navigate growth without compromising credibility.

COLE WOODS

How I Work

My role isn't execution, it's pattern recognition. I've navigated professional sports, international fashion, beauty tech partnerships, and founder-led ventures. This gives me the ability to see consequences you can't see from inside your business.

I advise on strategic partnerships, brand positioning, technology integration, reputation management, and high-visibility transitions; the decisions that determine whether a business grows or stalls. 

Clientele

This is for leaders who value foresight over speed, need strategic perspective rather than tactical execution, and trust their own ability to act or delegate; they just want clearer direction before they do. 

 

Not for: Anyone looking for deliverables, implementation support, or hands-on project work.

How This Works

Professional athlete. International model. Entrepreneur. Strategic advisor at the intersection of culture, technology, and visibility.

 

I have never waited for permission, and I have never needed a roadmap. I competed professionally in Madrid, walked runways in Paris, founded The Modelpreneur Bootcamp across multiple global markets, taught myself software development, and built an AI platform from scratch, all while advising founders and athletes at the highest levels of their industries.
 

Every chapter has followed the same pattern. I enter a domain, master it, compete at its highest level, then build something that lets others do what I just did.


That pattern is why people trust me with their most consequential decisions. It is not what I say I can do. It is what I have already done. Repeatedly. Across every room I have ever entered.
