About us

Thank you for being here to learn more about Rego

Here you will find: Founder bios, mission, vision, and founding journey

We’re do’ers, strategists, and collaborators.

We’ve learned first-hand the incredible amount of work that goes into diverting a single pound of waste from a landfill.

Through our platform, products, and expertise, we give our clients the playbook to win.

Rego started as a tech-forward junk removal and delivery operator.

Our journey started as a localized service to close the loop on bulk waste in Philadelphia. Customers loved our strategy to reduce costs and keep their items out of landfills (and off of our streets).

With our background in product and code, we custom-built our platform to provide even more seamless experiences, landfill diversion tracking, and automation tools to save countless manual hours.

From the first click, our software suite helped automate the countless steps involved in a typical waste diversion operation.
​
We realized that our tools could help other businesses scale and go circular, so we chose to share them with others.

Today, our platform makes it possible for any organization to go zero waste and to scale circularity.

We're working to ensure that all businesses can profitably participate in the circular economy and waste diversion.

Rego automates tasks, performs dirty work, and removes operational bottlenecks so that circularity can make sense for business.

Our mission

Sustainable urban living

Our mission is to build cleaner communities so that people can have confidence in where they live, anywhere in the world. 

Rego is working to address UN goal 11: Sustainable cities and communities

It's great to meet you!

I've spent my life at the intersections of construction, hauling, and technology. I started working on job sites at 13 years old and fell in love with the idea that new technology and inventions could impact how we interact with the world.
 
Inventions from simple paint brushes to new hauling trucks, and artificial intelligence helped take life from mud and clay to skyscrapers and rocket ships. 

Fun facts:
I'm the self-proclaimed best Philadelphia tour guide. 
I was in two movies and one documentary. 
I'm a former arena football player and lived at an Olympic Development Academy for rugby 7's.
