In my previous life, I was in the restaurant business for over 20 years serving all positions, primarily in the front of the house, to manager to restaurant owner. I also owned my own Marketing Company for a number of years.I am the Owner/Producer/Host of The Left of Str8 Podcast Network for the LGBT Community and our Allies. We are currently in the 7th Season of our Flagship, "Left of Str8 Show Interviews," where I interview Celebrities and Personalities from Entertainment, Foodies, Books, Music and Advocacy. We have 8 different podcasts currently airing on the network, 5 days a week, Monday through Friday. In addition to the "Left of Str8 Show," we have "5 Questions With...," "Bears of a Certain Age," "Standing on my Soapbox," "Pride and Promotion Marketing," "The Rapid Fire Ranch," "Rainbow Gastronomy with Chef Lynn Wheeler," and "Bent Cinema with Nathan Box." We are always looking for new podcasts to produce and new podcast hosts who would like to bring their prodcast dream to life. In addition to the Podcast Network, in April of 2024, I started the Left of Str8 Coffee Company. An E-Commerce business that raises money for LGBTQ+ Non Profits and Community Groups. With the majority portion of the profits going back to the Community, we proudly brew equality in every cup. There are over 20 varieties of coffee available every month, with new ones and special deals each month. We offer Regular Blends, Premium Blends, Single Sourced Beans and some of your favorite Flavored coffees. We also try to incorporate fun into the website with free e-coloring books available to download each month, community links, contests and more. Soon we will be doing special online coffee klatches and game nights.
