I was held up at gunpoint ☠️ when I was 17 years old walking up East 96th street in NYC🏙.. It wasn’t the worse neighborhood in NYC. It WAS night time. And I WAS NOT paying enough attention 😔 to my surroundings. I was walking with my head down 😔 .I am a passionate person! I gave my two assailants my money💸 but I would not give them my walkman🎧!!!Music 🎶 was life for me in my high school days. I loved Hip Hop 🎤 and I, in my DJ Cam-Ron persona, had made the mixtape 📼 which was playing in my ears as they shoved me and ran away. I was more into music than common sense. My father raised me in an apartment on 57th street. I spent summers in California ☀️ with my mother. Christmas 🎄 I spent with my father and his family in St. Louis Missouri.Focused on music and not much else I did not graduate high school. My heart 🫀 desired a family and my libido delivered me an ill conceived one at 19 years old. The mother and I had broken up 💔 even before Stone, my baby boy 👼🏽 , was born.Soon after Stone 👼🏽 was born I started down a path of understanding life more clearly and making sharper career choices.🧳But I had a long way to go. I earned my GED. ✓I had a slew of internships and jobs. ✓I signed up for College - the New School’s Eugene Lang College. ✓I became a bartender. 🍷 ✓I dropped out of college 🤦🏻♂️As a single father who hadn’t done anything to make sure I had the proper resources in place to succeed - it was tough. 😥I pursued a hospitality career. 🍽I rose quickly. 📈I got married. 💍I burnt myself out. 🥵I changed careers.🖥I became a father again.👨👩👧👧I got laid off from my corporate event manager position in Stamford, CT.😥I had enough!🤬I started Toth Event Staffing in 2011. I haven’t looked back!!! 🤑I help others prepare for College and Career by being a Board member and supporting SoundBusiness.Org based in Harlem, NYC.My passion is to help young people and entrepreneurs to not make the same mistakes that I did.I don't walk with my head down anymore.👇***CLICK on my featured section to SUBSCRIBE to my YouTube Channel.***👇
