Justin Goss has been a business owner for thirty years. That road hasn't been all wins; he's driven through his share of adversity, and it shaped how he runs things today: steady, practical, and focused on what actually works.
His background is in insurance sales, working across multiple carriers and building relationships in a wide range of industries. He still holds life and health insurance licenses in 43 states. That experience led him to the technology side of employee benefits, where he now serves as Chief Operating Officer of The Blue Orange Solutions, helping brokers and employers get enrollment platforms built, connected, and supported by real people.
He's also COO of Platypus Payroll (PlatPro Enterprise), a payroll, HR, and accounting platform for employer groups, and one of its developers. He writes code as well as he reads a P&L, which comes in handy more often than you'd think.
Outside of work hours, he built and released Swellrunner, a surfing platformer for Android. When the laptop closes, the guitar comes out. Music runs through the house, and some of it ends up on his YouTube channel, alongside the family that inspires most of it.
Justin is a husband and a father of five.
