Ten years ago, I founded the DLC Music Academy and played plucked strings in hundreds of musicals for private and public theatre organizations in the TriState area. After years of playing and teaching music, I sold my business to a local studio, packed my gear, and headed west to Los Angeles.

Here is where I began writing music for film/mixed media projects and began freelance consulting for local businesses. In 2017, I decided to solely focus on scaling a 30 person e-commerce business, helping Ridge reach $50M in 2021.

After creating industry-leading models and forming kick-ass teams, I shifted my focus to the handmade goods industry, opening a zero-waste woodshop. Main Home Goods developed the first 100% wooden MagSafe charger which was sold on Amazon for a limited time.

While building Main Home Goods, I joined Makeplus as COO to launch a pay-as-you-go membership and franchise program. We spent 2 years together before family hardships as a result of the Israeli-Palestinian conflicts in the Middle-East, let to major changes to our expansion and ultimately changing directions.

This brings us to 2024. I have been blessed to be apart of many wonderful industries and today, I'm using every skill I've learned in the past decade to build, My Real AI. We'll demonstrate, through a human-centric approach, that safe, verified AI Personas can be effectively scaled and monetized for artists, brands and creators.
