I’m a serial entrepreneur. I own a restaurant on the LES called Freemans, and a fashion company. We make t-shirts (Taavo Tees) as well as a line of custom made-to-measure suits and sport coats (F.S.C.). Check out our stuff at Barney’s, Ron Herman, Steve Allen, Fred Segal, or United Arrows in Tokyo.
We've also opened a store on Rivington next to the restaurant in NYC, which has a full-service old school four chair barber shop in the back.

I also a writer in the NYU MFA program, and teaching an undergrad class this spring in Intermediate Creative Writing. I have a tendency to take on too much at once, and like to work behind the scenes.
I was raised in Detroit which helps keep me grounded. I ran Sigma6 in downtown Harmonie park and was part of the downtown electronic music scene there during the ninties. I love NYC, but miss the music and the serene desolation of the D.
