I’m a lifelong artist and entrepreneur featured in publications from Entrepreneur and Inc. to Vintage Guitar Magazine, No Treble, and Bass Frontier.After selling everything in 2020 and traveling coast to coast, to coast, to coast over the last 4+ years in a 40' coach with my fiancée Heather and rescue dog Olivia - I'm currently pioneering innovation in the Pacific Northwest and revolutionizing the art industry by creating a new form of artwork, that shares its story with you.I got my start working every angle in the construction / real estate industry, but eventually partnered with a boutique instrument shop where my marketing efforts resulted in us- Being organically ranked #2 globally on all major search engines for top industry keyword phrases - Developing a cult following on social media- Getting involved in various JV’s with leading industry companies - Being publicized in multiple entities - And selling instruments for as much as $7,000+. We eventually grew into designing signature series product lines for top musicians and multiple Grammy award winning artists ( including one who has been nominated for 12 and walked alway with 5 ).It was during this time that I created the “Rybski Cougar” guitar line with professional musicians in mind. The Cougar is highly customizable and offers the sonic versatility of many popular guitar lines combined, with fewer knobs than a standard electric guitar, all in one visually stunning instrument.While producing high end instruments, I started learning about licensing from my friend and mentor Stephen Key. As a result of working through the many obstacles of getting my product ideas into massive companies for licensing purposes, I mastered new skill sets which led me to co-write “Licensing Ideas using LinkedIn” with Stephen Key as well as to create the program “SmartPitch” for inventRight, where I teach and inspire students from all over the world in learning the art of getting their ideas into companies.I'm dedicated to bringing a high level of value in everything I do. I believe that treating people fairly and with respect is both more important and rewarding than taking advantage of them.
