Hi! I’m Richard Felix, Second of His Name. I love to write code and figure out how things work. I’m also very much into food, whether I’m eating, cooking, baking, smoking meat or grilling.
Occasionally I find time to play an instrument or two. Usually guitar.
I’m also an investor (in Supercast, Scripto, AgelessRx, Peachy (failed in 2023), ConvertKit and through Calm Company Fund) and an executive producer on some short films.
I’ve built a lot of things on the internet. A lot. Some were just fun projects, some were products. Some worked out. Many didn’t. Eventually, thanks to 30×500 I learned that what I was doing wrong was having ideas and trying to find customers for them instead of identifying valuable problems and then telling people about the solution I built.
Currently I’m actively working on Stunning, which helps Stripe users to recover more revenue from their customers when payments fail.
A lot of people have graciously helped me along the way, without asking for anything in return. I like to pay that forward as much as possible, so if you have any questions about anything that you think I can help with, let me know!
