About Me

I am always looking for new opportunities to learn and change. Being raised in Las Vegas, NV has taught me a lot about diversity and adventure. I continue to look for that each day. Having started a few businesses, I have grown to love entrepreneurship and everything having to do with it.

My Vision.
Lead by example.

Branding

Having started a few businesses, I am learning the importance of branding. Here's an example of how I have built our brand for Shaka Tribe.

DESIGN

Being an entrepreneur, you will learn to take up many different hats. Design has been one of those for me. I enjoy product development and graphic art.

CASE STUDIES

Problem: The Covid-19 pandemic created restrictions on living situations and the closing of many operations.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, I was able to problem solve in many ways when it came to running a business. Originally I was living in Hawaii and marketing Polynesian products online. Due to Covid-19, I was sent home to Las Vegas. For five months I spent many hours taking product shots in my desert backyard, trying to make it look like I was still in Hawaii. I have learned to be able to work with what I have to make the best of any given circumstance.

Can you tell from these photos that I am in Las Vegas and not the island of Oahu?
