PETER DRUCKER ONCE SAID “THE CONSUMER RARELY BUYS WHAT THE COMPANY THINKS IT’S SELLING.” and I tell you what, I gotta agree with the man.

I was born and raised in Miami, but I've had the chance to live a few places around the country for different bits of time, doing different bits of things. Aside from work, my life is unevenly divided between myself, my incredible wife, and my two super rad kids. That’s only part of the reason I have more personal projects on hold than I'd like to admit. It's a thing. Creativity, cars, and the ocean have always kept my attention. That will never change. I own a small furniture company. So small that I am the only employee. I’m also a 50% owner of a rare plants company. Shoot me a message and I’ll send you a coupon. I'm an organized hoarder. I hate waste and being wasteful. Anything can become something if you find the right use for it. I have a AA in Marketing and a Bachelors in Advertising, and I firmly believe in the power of learning something new every day. I love to lead. I love to collaborate. I love being a part of growth and I know how important it is to trust the process and the person.
