I am a serial entrepreneur -- it's not that I can't focus on one thing, I just dive into all the things all the time. I work to harness diverse opinions and views in order to create solutions that foster productivity. My goal is to disrupt out-dated business models and replace them with innovative solutions geared towards creating solutions that enable change and productivity in the workplace..In 2005, I left New York to come to Colorado in an effort to lead changes that would eventually pave the way for marijuana legalization. At that point I understood the importance of people in business and not just the financial bottom-line. In 2008, I founded a successful pizza chain without any knowledge or experience making pizza or in the restaurant business. There were a lot of reasons for the success of this chain, but I give most credit to the Denver community for supporting and believing in my vision. Finally in 2012, I started a t-shirt printing business in my backyard which has, to my surprise and delight, grew into a multi-million dollar union printing enterprise. What sprouted from that bare bones, backyard dream is now an apparel manufacturing factory in Colorado that will espouse my most important agenda: MADE IN USA goods with the focus on the betterment of workers.I am also an active member of various organizations that promote the backbone of America -- small business. In my spare time I write fire lyrics/poetry and host a podcast with my best friend.
