About Rikin

My life in 10 seconds

Hi, I’m Rikin, an adventurer, entrepreneur, and avid sailor. I like solving messy problems and scaling fast. I believe in the power of adventure, community, and entrepreneurship.

Currently, I lead growth at Total Primary Care, Texas’ largest independent primary care group. 

Prior to Total Primary Care, I built a direct-to-consumer furniture company called Moonlit and also spent time in consulting, automotive logistics, and startup ops.

I attended The University of Texas at Austin where I helped run the UT Sailing Club and studied finance with a minor in architecture.

YouTube: Sometimes, I’m too lazy too read. I know you all feel the same. That’s why I also put stuff on YouTube. From reviewing affordable adventure gear, interviews with average people doing incredible things, learning new things, and the occasional how-to. You can find them here.
