Diondré F. Johnson

Pittsburgh, PA

First off, I love God and His Kingdom. I'm an entrepreneur by blood; I started my first business venture at the age of 12 in Bensalem, PA (during the summer after my 6th grade year next to Creekside (pronounced [kreek 'sYeed])) selling freshly baked pretzels from dawn to dusk in front of Pathmark. I fired my best friend that same summer and we didn't speak for about 2 years afterwards (sorry bro).

I've been hustlin' since '98 (leaving Carnegie Mellon University in '99; didn't graduate) and haven't looked back. While there, I was a Regional Marketing Manager for CollegeClub.com and was recruited by the late JobDirect.com. I free-lanced for both simultaneously for a couple years (when .com's were makin' it rain). I started Dreso Direct aka Liquidation Works in 2001 and DRE, Inc. in 2008. I also had my hand in Phat Fish & Chix in late 2006-2007. My latest venture is DRE|media which is your digital marketing solution.

I love business and brainstorming concepts, ideas, and strategies. Currently, I'm honing my skills as a Social Media expert; it excites me. I design graphically; logos, profile banners, letterheads, flyers, etc. I choreograph mime and am a vocalist; currently perform with the most award-winning a cappella group in Pittsburgh, DoubleShot!, I founded and named my ministry, 1ne, in late 2010 and I handle booking, marketing, PR, and promotions for both groups.

If you can read this, then you're my friend and I love you.
