Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

I'm inspired by philosophers and philanthropists like Napolean Hill. As a successful Independent Record Producer/Engineer I'm inspired to empower artists and creators by harnessing blockchain, DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) to bring about a new P2P creator Industry that elliminates middlemen, censorship and out of date tech.

How do you stay motivated?

I wake up early every morning & first I Pray, give gratitude to God, 200 push-ups, then I lift heavy weights & run 40 yard sprints. I maintain a diet that encompasses lots of fasting (usually 1 meal per day on the regular) and sometimes up to 3-5 days of just water and vitamins. I give praise to my beautiful amazing wife and our nine amazing children whom we are destined to break generational curses through entrepreneurship and building generational wealth.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Blockchain is an experimental industry, I would use a lot of the grant for innovation purposes. What is important at my stage is to get a well oiled system that is paying for itself and expanding the business autonomously. By finding a working model, Sound Alive will be able to compete with the traditional industry and lower the threshold for musicians to grow their brand, while also expanding the industry into new and undiscovered category classes.
