Ritch
Founding Partner / CTO
Ritch is an entrepreneur and technology advisor with a background in building businesses and acquiring domain names. Following the sale of his computer company in the late 1990s, he entered the domain name industry, where he grew and sold an ICANN-accredited registrar and built an extensive domain portfolio.
For more than two decades, he has helped prominent technology companies, startups, and high-net-worth individuals discreetly acquire domain names and other intellectual property. His client practice has grown through word-of-mouth referrals, grounded in confidentiality and a commitment to protecting clients’ interests.
A longtime trusted technology advisor to founder Lance White, Ritch now joins him as Founding Partner and CTO, formalizing a relationship that began in the early 1990s.
Raised in West Virginia, Ritch lives in Destin, Florida, with his wife and is the father of two adult children.
