Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My biggest inspiration in business is the idea of building something from the ground up. I admire entrepreneurs and independent creators who take risks and create their own opportunities. That mindset drives me to keep building Steel Cyclone Studios and developing games, tools, and products that can grow into a real platform over time.

How do you stay motivated?

My family is my biggest motivation. I work hard because I want to provide stability and build something meaningful for them. Every project I work on—whether it's developing games through Steel Cyclone Studios or launching new ideas—is driven by the goal of creating opportunities that can support the people I love while building something lasting.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would invest the $25,000 into growing Steel Cyclone Studios while creating resources that give back to the developer community. The funding would support development, software, and marketing so I can release more games, tools, and open-source projects that help aspiring developers learn and build their own ideas. I also want to complete the 3D Buzz learning archive app in memory of Jason Busby so future creators can continue learning from those incredible courses.
