This industry changed my life and my writing is my gift to a future generation of marketers.

My Story
Losing Everything
At twenty I lost everything. Fifty grand in debt, back in my parents' basement, selling phone service door to door through bulletproof glass in a Detroit winter with a hole in one shoe. Some days I didn't eat. Every night I came home and built anyway. Then, past midnight one night, my first commission arrived: $1.25. It was everything.
Building Ringba
Another business died overnight and nobody was coming to save us. In 2015 Harrison and I built Ringba with our own money, no investors, no salary for years, and one mission: leave everybody better off than we found them. Terrible plan. It worked. I know what $1.25 can do for a person. The wall of plaques now starts at a million.
Another Life
Sixty-five countries. Kilimanjaro, winter Rainier, sunrise on Fuji. Dinner at Jiro. Dancing sober at EDC while strangers film me. I collect jets now. I spent twenty years head down, building. I live in Miami, I make music, and my debut album is called Another Life. That is exactly what this is.
