Listen to my music

San Franciscan turned San Mateo innovator, I’m a multi-disciplinary creative passionate about digital marketing, property management, and interior design. With a background in music and contemporary arts, I've worn many hats—yogi, deejay, photographer, gentleman, and scholar. Over the years, I’ve earned certificates in social media marketing, digital media, and business ownership. Currently, I own a digital marketing agency and a short-term rental LLC.

In 2006, I interned with Om Records, a dance music label, where I organized their music catalog and discovered a wealth of new music, enriching my understanding and love for dance music. Around the same time, I discovered new music on RCRDLBL.com, sparking my dream of becoming a traveling DJ.

In 2015, I discovered Tai Lopez's courses on TaiLopez.com, which fueled my ambition to become a digital marketer and business owner. I completed several certifications, including the Social Media Marketing Agency Training Program and the eCommerce Certified Specialist program. These courses have been instrumental in my journey toward financial independence.

Currently, I'm in the Plan To Achieve Self Support (PASS) program, a Social Security initiative that helps beneficiaries start their own businesses. I applied in 2021 and was accepted in late 2023. This milestone has been a testament to my patience and fortitude as I strive to transition off the social safety net.

My journey has included an internship at the Skyline Bay Area Entrepreneurship Center and completing a certification in Electronic Music at the College of San Mateo (CSM). As a proud CSM Business Club alum, I’ve continually blended my love for music, design, and business. My artistic pursuits are diverse, from digital and black & white photography to fashion design, sound design, and vocal jazz.

I’ve tackled courses ranging from Fundamentals of Design and Color Theory to Yoga & Pilates, demonstrating my commitment to lifelong learning. Not to mention my many live performances, Honor Roll achievements, and a 10k marathon via the Skyline Running Club.

My goal is clear: business ownership, with a creative twist. As I build my skills, I’m dedicated to mentoring others, because we all stand on the shoulders of giants. My journey is a testament to the power of passion in cutting the learning curve in half. Let’s progress together!
