The silence is anticipation.

Anticipation of change.

Change that will shift the way real estate is transacted with at every level - forever.

It's a big task.
Most have said it is impossible.

But then again, those who have said this have never met Mark Vincent Fansler or Kaleb Dawson.

DEF CON is one of the world's largest and most famous computer security conventions. Founded by Jeff Moss in 1993, it brings together tens of thousands of hackers, researchers, federal employees, and tech enthusiasts.

Our engineering team has been working their tails off all year long, so it only seemed natural to unleash them at DEF CON 2026—the world's leading, premier hacker convention. 🔥

While our feed is usually all business, an elite event like this proves you can have a blast while mastering your craft. We only attract the best of the best: innovators who deeply understand risk-to-reward and what truly creates value.

Right now, the team is balancing high-octane fun in the interactive villages with absorbing next-gen security insights from global research leaders. 🧠💻

It is the ultimate mix of celebration, community, and world-class training. We cannot wait to see how they leverage this edge when they get back to the codebase! 🚀

Congratulations to the team & enjoy your time off!

to the Family: Ben Christensen Joins Golden Mare Ventures as Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer

Golden Mare Ventures is proud to announce that Ben Christensen has officially joined the company as Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer.

Ben brings more than 20 years of experience building automated, secure, and scalable systems for some of the most demanding environments in the country. Over his career he has eliminated more than 500,000 hours of manual work, automated over 200 roles, and saved organizations more than $4 million per year. He has advised and built for names like CrowdStrike, Wells Fargo, and a Fortune 50 enterprise where his automation work protected operations valued at $11.4 million per hour.

His background spans AI workflow engineering, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise security architecture, including compliance frameworks like FedRAMP, HIPAA, and PCI DSS. In plain terms, Ben knows how to take slow, manual, error-prone processes and rebuild them as systems that run fast, stay secure, and never miss a step.

That skill set matters here. Golden Mare Ventures is building a real estate education and operator ecosystem where trust is the product. Our members are learning to underwrite deals, analyze opportunities, and step into ownership with confidence. The technology behind that experience has to be as disciplined as the education itself. Ben is the person who makes that true.

As CTO, Ben will lead the architecture and buildout of our platform, including Seebizkit, the operating core of everything we do. As a Co-Founder, he shares ownership of the mission: practical training, transparent education, and real results for real estate agents, investors, and aspiring homebuyers across Washington and beyond.

We do not add people to this team lightly and there is an extensive audition process that revolves around real world decision making. Ben has already proven himself in the work, and we are honored to have him build alongside us.

Welcome to the GMV family, Ben. Let's get to work.

**GMV just added serious firepower. Welcome Logan Hicks, VP of Technology.**

Golden Mare Ventures is announcing our newest team member, and this one moves the needle.

Logan Hicks has spent more than 20 years engineering technology where the stakes are highest. He has built artificial intelligence and machine learning systems for the intelligence community, architected cloud and big data infrastructure at massive scale, led multiple engineering teams supporting the Department of Defense and federal law enforcement, and delivered national security solutions at Amazon. When the government needs systems that cannot fail, people like Logan get the call.

Here is what makes him different. Logan also spent many years as a licensed commercial real estate agent in Georgia. He has walked properties, worked deals, and understands the business from the ground level, not just from behind a keyboard.

That combination is the entire point. Talent that operates at the top of computer science or the top of real estate is rare. Talent that has done both is nearly impossible to find, and it is exactly what we recruit for at GMV. Real estate is being rebuilt by technology right now, and the teams that win will be the ones who deeply understand both sides. That is us. That is by design.

Logan will lead the technology powering our platform, building the tools that make deal analysis, underwriting, and real estate operations faster and clearer for operators at every level.

Big things are coming. Welcome aboard, Logan.

We are excited to welcome **Amber Crowe** into the Golden Mare Ventures ecosystem as she begins her working trial for the role of **Director of Revenue Enablement & Performance**.

Amber will work directly under and if selected, will graduate into VP of sales & client relations, helping transform our client's sales strategies into measurable, repeatable systems that improve team performance across their organizations.

Her focus will include:

* Sales onboarding and training
* Call quality and performance coaching
* KPI tracking and reporting
* CRM discipline and workflow improvement
* Sales playbooks, SOPs, and accountability systems
* Customer-success integration
* AI-assisted sales and coaching workflows

As the role develops, Amber will also help oversee engineering technicians and workflow specialists building advanced user interfaces designed to improve high-ticket sales processes across real estate.

This position will serve as an important bridge between sales leadership, operational performance, artificial intelligence, and product development.

Amber brings a strong combination of sales enablement, operational strategy, customer success, coaching, and performance-system development. We believe her experience and perspective could become a major asset as GMV continues building the infrastructure required to scale.

This is a meaningful opportunity with real responsibility, and we are excited to see what she builds.

**Welcome to Golden Mare Ventures, Amber.**

We are proud to announce the first successful onboard in the Golden Mare Ventures Engineering Tech Program.

Phoenix Gillies, out of Middle Tennessee, has officially joined the GMV team as our first Engineering Tech. Phoenix came through our ongoing intern and working-interview application process, and from the moment he stepped in, he made it clear he was not here to wait around. He reviewed the terms, negotiated professionally, signed clean, and had his first deliverable in our inbox within an hour of receiving his welcome email. That is the operating speed we build at, and that is exactly who we build with.

Phoenix brings over ten years of hands-on entrepreneurial experience spanning construction, real estate investment, contract negotiation, and business development. His background covers everything from full-scope residential and commercial renovations to multifamily investment strategy, sustainable and green building practices, blockchain financing, and cybersecurity foundations. He has managed full project cycles under tight budgets and hard deadlines, built and led crews, managed investor relationships, and scaled businesses entirely through referral and trust, which tells you everything about the quality of his work.

At GMV, Phoenix will be focused heavily on operations, including hardware integrations, site setup, personalized client relations, and building out service contracts tailored to individual client needs. He is also the kind of person who operates at multiple levels simultaneously. His long-term vision sits squarely at the intersection of rapid reusability, biodegradable and sustainable living, and the application of AI toward holistic health and human wellbeing. That intersection is one very few people are even thinking about yet, and Phoenix has been building toward it deliberately. We have been watching him grow in this space for the past couple of years, and he has consistently stood out as a builder and a go-getter in the truest sense of both words.
Phoenix is already active on a live client engagement where GMV is building proprietary training material as part of a pilot program, giving the client a first look at what this team delivers before any broader commitment is made. He jumped at the opportunity without hesitation.

Welcome to the team, Phoenix. We are just getting started.

We are currently in discussions with some extremely brilliant individuals.

Thank you to all who have applied and continue to apply yourself to what we are building here at GMV.

Few can understand the scope of work that we have in front of us and only the best of the best make it in. The rest are too busy with what is in front of them, trying to get rich with their new Ai ideas by themselves, turning into lil knuckle heads along the way.... We are a tried and true group of operators all with some of the highest degrees of experience in our fields.

This is why you can count on us to serve your best interests, not only as our friends, contractors or employees but as our PARTNERs, that we bring in and personally do deals with.

But WHAT TF is GMV?
Simple, we are a high ticket consulting platform consisting of some of the world's most brilliant engineers and scientists, who have come together to form a coalition of freelance business professionals who all come together with their tooling and techniques in effort to solve incredibly complex problems around high-finance, real estate, business, brokerage, insurance and other general white-collar related work flows & processes.

We are currently building our flagship product, which will be a self titled drop called "Golden Mare" anymore information on this drop will be available towards the beginning of next year.

MY hope with this release is to essentially integrate instant settlement across illiquid assets by converting the assets into a separate instrument and then re-packaging those materials and then re-sending them back to the appropriate parties or who ever is making the data request from the platform.

Eventually, you will all come to know Golden Mare as a household name, knowing for creating the Internet of Real Estate.

Security clearance will be required where requested.

You will be assigned a case manager if accepted that you will work with until you are place.

Whats the job?
ENGINEER

Which kind?
It doesn't matter.

We need blockchain engineers, automators, Front end interface developers, Back end testers, visionaries, leaders, followers, students, people that just wanna learn through our internship program..... Heck, even Vibecoders are welcome (;
