Education
Photographer
1900s - present
For many years, photography has been a hobby that allowed me to document many wonderous adventures as I have wandered throughout this amazing world. Over the last 10 years, I have taken to photography more professionally working with and getting published in local magazines and newspapers, working to enhance the careers of artists, models and entrepreneurs. I enjoy capturing the beauty, history and even tragedy of the world around us - from tropical islands to urban jungles to turist destinations. And of course still photography is a gateway skill to FILM PRODUCTION
Music Aficionado
1900s - present
Music is life. It is the SOUNDTRACK of our journey from birth to Ascention. I have always been around music. I have played various instruments, I have owned two turntables and a crate of vinyl records. Percussions are the heartbeats of SOUL and the music that I enjoy most represents reality, love, pain, struggle, sorrow, joy, hope and promise for a beautiful people, my people. We are all mixed racially but are ONE ethnically. The core of who I am is Africa and as I find myself traveling through the Americas, I find a DIASPORA of amazingly resilient and tradition-rooted communities that embrace the most foundamental form of story-telling and historical preservation-
MUSIC
Entrepreneur
1900s - present
Creativity applied to business yeilds amazing opportunities with no interest in providing labor for somebody else's dream. I have my own PURPOSE for living and one of the greatest challenges in life has been to find and build a source of wealth and ABUNDANCE according to the standards, expoectations and code of pPROFITS that motiates me. Creating wealth and prosperity is the primary mission, sharing the success and bounty earned and acquired is a moral obligation, Redemption for mistakes and failures comes from ENTREPRENEURIAL success and maturity.
This project will be the first of many productions I hope to be a part of that shines more light on the truly diverse world that we live in with emphasis on the contributions of peoples that for so long have been overlooked and under appreciated for their contributions to modern civilization.
