About

A finance kid who kept building things

I'm Tyler Winkler. I'm based in Tampa, I graduated from the University of Tampa in 2026 with a finance degree, and somewhere along the way I ended up running two businesses instead of picking one.

The short version: I like building things and I don't like waiting for permission to start. Winkz Designs came from building my own sites and realising how many businesses were stuck with something slow, ugly, or invisible on Google. Winkz Enterprises came from wanting to understand a real product business, sourcing, margins, logistics, all of it, instead of only reading about it in a finance class.

Why the mix actually works

Ecommerce taught me margin discipline and operations. The finance degree taught me to look at a business as numbers rather than vibes. Web design taught me how people actually behave on a page. And the AI consulting work I do with Clarity HCM sits right on top of all three, because automating a company's workflow means first understanding how that company really makes money.

That's the honest reason I haven't narrowed down to one thing. Each business keeps making the others sharper.

What I'm good at

  • Getting something real in front of you fast, instead of a long proposal
  • Building websites that load quickly and read well on a phone
  • Spotting the repetitive work in a business and taking it off the team's plate
  • Talking about money and operations without the consultant vocabulary

Where I'm going

More client work, more AI tooling, and more businesses that are built to run without me sitting on top of them. If you're working on something in that direction, I'd genuinely like to hear about it.
