    As a teenager I started designing & manufacturing my own line of skateboards. My father had a woodworking shop with all the right tools. With an initial investment of $3400 and a very positive response from the local skate n' surf culture kids it quickly grew. At the age of 15 years old my parents assisted me with getting a store front (I wasn't old enough to sign a commercial real estate lease). I eventually carried surfboards & full line of men & women's skate & surf wear. I attended Industry Expo's, handled all merchandise ordering, learned how to balance my own accounting books, managed our pro skate team & so many other aspects that come with running a skate n' surf company. I sold the company when I was 18 years of age to pursue my passion to work in the industry of music & my little known punk rock band. This was an amazing learning experience for me and all involved.
