Therapy Made Him a Better Leader
Entrepreneur magazine
|August 2025 - Startups
A cofounder of The Black Tux shares how, to grow his company, he needed to understand himself first.

I run a company of 400 people. It's only possible because of a decision I made soon after we launched—even though it had nothing to do with business: I decided to see a therapist.
I hadn’t set out to be an entrepreneur; I was an English major in college, busy reading Dostoevsky and philosophy. Then I rented a tuxedo to get married, and it was an atrocious process. There must be a better way, I thought. My groomsman, Patrick Coyne (who had the same experience), agreed, and we cofounded The Black Tux in 2013 with the plan to rent well-fitting, high-quality suits and tuxes online—which turned out to be operationally complicated and immediately popular.

Passing Is a Power Move
I was never interested in team sports, but I loved track. I was confident in my speed and agility, and that made me a star on my high school team. This was always part of my personality: I am an individual; I do things my way. But one day at a track meet, I was competing in the 4-by-100-meter relay, which requires runners to pass a baton between each other three times. We were winning—until I fumbled the pass. The baton fell to the ground. We lost.
