I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm just a semi-normal guy tryin to best the best person I can. I try to do the right thing in almost every situation. I value my friends, I'm somewhat of a loner, due to an individualistic upbringing (thanks mom), which basically means i'm comfortable in my own skin. Go to restaurants, movies, etc alone and have a great time. I grew up in Maple Hts and Warrensville Hts and attended private school most of my grade school life.
Went to public school for 7th and 8th grade, looked like a genius! Went to Trinity High School (Catholic). Played Football, Basketball, Wrestled and was on the track team over my 4 years. Then on to Mount Vernon Nazarene University (kind of like Baptists) so I guess I've had a very diverse religious upbringing. No sports in college, just intramurals and student Government, serving on the Judicial Board, Admissions and Recruitment Committee, and the President of the Association of Men's Residents. So yeah, I'm a leader. Got my B.A. in Business Administration- Management Information Systems track and had a minor in Drama. So yeah, I'm an actor too. Sounds like a Reagan profile.
Grad. from school in '03 (still haven't picked up my real diploma) and decided to chill for a while. Worked at Wal-Mart all through college and then upon graduation worked there, then Bally Total Fitness (Beachwood/Personal Trainer), then the Gap(Beachwood/highest paid mall employee ever $10.75/hr in '03, look me up), then coached Track at Hawken High School (Gates Mills/Head Throws Coach), Cheesecake Factory (Beachwood/Busser), and Verizon (Beachwood, Mayfield/Sales Rep) so yeah, I got experience.
Started doing nightclub promotions and marketing a while back, decided to make a full time go of it about two months ago, i'm not homeless yet so I guess you could say it's working out nicely. Moving to Los Angeles in the fall to pursue dreams as an actor (I told you I was an actor already!) and I'm sure that my business here will sustain my lofty ambitions out there when the time comes. If you want more, you are either crazy or just good peoples. Let's Talk!
My company, Golden Child Productions is bringing some new flavor to Downtown. We are launching a party series that caters to the jet set, hipster crowd and promotes a well rounded lifestyle by emphasizing Art/Culture, Fashion, and Technology. I also write for ClevelandBrew.com, check out my column, called Goldfather at http://blogs.clevelandbrew.com/goldfather. Holla!!!
