About me
I launched my first concept as a college sophomore at just 20 years old. The purpose was to create opportunities for student leaders to apply their education through community outreach projects. Within the first two years of operation, I successfully impacted 42 local organizations and businesses, and led over 2,000 students. Then the 2008 recession happened.
With no job opportunities, I bet on myself and turned that project into my first company. What began as a student-led project quickly evolved into a multi-city event production company. A few short years later, I realized all of the skills I had developed but wasn't monetizing. So I launched my second company to scale and recently launched my third business.
While I have achieved great success, the trials and tribulations of my personal life inspired me to dig deeper. That journey has helped me to proudly share that I'm a first-generation Mexican American, nonbinary, pansexual, longtime business owner, community organizer and mentor. My life purpose is to help those around me access their passions, creativity, and strength to live out their dreams.
