About

Portrait of Caio Mamede Silva

Building something worth remembering.

I'm Caio — an entrepreneur, student, and athlete moving at the intersection of ambition and discipline. At seventeen I founded a pressure washing company in Gainesville, Florida and ran it alone for seventeen months: finding the customers, quoting the jobs, doing the work, collecting the payment. Twenty or so clients later, I'd learned more about business than any classroom could have taught me.

Today I'm based in the Salt Lake Valley, Utah — studying, training, and building web studios and software for people who deserve better than a template. Portuguese is my first language, English my second, and Spanish the one I'm still sharpening.

Like the Romans who built roads that outlasted empires, I play the long game.
