I started being in business at the ripe young age of 12. I use to cut grass in my neighborhood. I had this idea to buy the gas for the other lawn mowers that the maintenance guys would drop off. That way I can cut more yards and pay the other guys for cutting grass. I started throwing parties and dances. Karate shows all kinda events to make money. My entertainment career was halted a little bit due to the fact that I had a corporate job with a major restaurant chain. Later on my manager would give me the weekend off which allowed me to continue we my events. Early on in my music career, I owned a record shop, on air DJ, Party Host and I owned a chain of Karate Schools. I’m most proud of all my accomplishments as a father, I was able to do most of all of my business while being a single father. I had semi-success with a few local artist. Major came in the form of a StagePlay. My very good friend June Delite’s step brother his wife was an author and self publisher of 6 books that she had written. She would always says “you need to meet Donna” I said ok, we finally met at a family function, we talked about what we both did and had done. She knew everything I had done in the music business and how other client thought about and how I had helped a lot of people. We agreed spoke about me managing her career, I didn’t say yes at that time, however I did agree to meet with her. Little did I know she was determined to have me manage her that she called me everyday until we met. When we met I had a Publishing contract as well as a Business Management Contract.
