Perix / About

Boston-based. Founder-operated.

Perix represents creators and builds the communities brands operate in — run by two co-founders who've done the work at scale.

We work with founders, creators, and brand teams who treat community as core product — the place where the most valuable members are made, not bought.

Engagements are intentionally few. We embed with your team, own outcomes directly, and hand off systems your operators can run for years.

We've built and operated communities across Discord and Reddit for entertainment properties, creators, and early-stage software companies — plus day-to-day creator representation covering sponsorships, partnerships, and channel growth.

Meet the founders

Barron Grosch

Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer

I started Perix after years of hands-on community work — building and managing a 55,000-member Discord community and co-managing a subreddit with nearly 2 million members. The strongest communities aren't built through growth hacks; they're built through trust, thoughtful systems, and consistent execution.

Today I work with startups, creators, and brands on community infrastructure, creator partnerships, and the operations that let a team scale without burning out its members or its moderators.

Francisco Fuentes

Co-Founder & Chief Marketing Officer

I bring a background in business and international management to Perix's growth and marketing strategy — from creator growth positioning to Perix's own presence across every platform we operate on.

I'm currently studying Business Management with a concentration in International Management and Economics at UMass Boston, where I also serve as Vice President and Treasurer of Mexsa, the university's Mexican heritage organization — experience that's shaped how I think about building community and leading teams.

Originally from Mexico, I bring that same care to how Perix approaches partnerships — relationships that are genuine, not transactional.
