On building close to the customer.
One operator. Three lanes. A long view.
Afigima Enterprises is the holding company behind a working portfolio. A bilingual notary practice serving North Texas families and businesses. An AI-assisted procurement platform giving buyers leverage in cybersecurity engagements — line by line, dollar by dollar, starting with Palo Alto Networks. And a forthcoming book on building from the middle. The thesis is simple: operate close to the customer, build the thing once, then teach what you learned.
