ABOUT OUR FOUNDERS

Libby and Chris DeLucien are operators, builders, and partners behind a portfolio of businesses spanning home services, recruiting technology, and operational education.
Together, they’ve spent over a decade building and scaling real companies—inside the mess of execution—learning firsthand where businesses break, where owners get buried in complexity, and what actually works when growth is required to support real life, not replace it.
Libby is the founder of 1 Layer Deep™, 1LD.ai, WootRecruit, Sell Convert Clean, and Organize It, and the creator of the Map → Refine → Execute philosophy. Her work centers on removing the layers between intention and execution—helping owners simplify operations, build structure that holds, and execute clearly without chaos.
Chris is the operational backbone behind the systems—bringing structure, discipline, and technical execution to the businesses they build. Together, they focus on creating tools and environments that replace guesswork with clarity and ownership.
Across their companies, Libby and Chris have worked closely with operators and teams responsible for hundreds of millions in annual revenue—designing systems, hiring frameworks, onboarding flows, and execution rhythms that support sustainable growth.
Their mission is simple:
remove the layers between people and the life they want.
1 Layer Deep exists as the central hub for that mission—where business, life, and leadership are simplified, organized, and built to support the human behind the company.
