Funding Usage
I've been playing music since I was in 5th grade. I will be 32yrs old on Feb 19th. I've been wanting to finally create my first album and I feel like this year is finally the time to FINISH & RELEASE this body of work. I've been apart of bands, and I still tour with Major artist such as:Gwen Stefani & Postmodern Jukebox. As Much as I love being a touring musician/backing instrumentalist. I also want to expand and showcase my creativity and musicianship through my own art. That's when this "9" album comes in. I was born on the 19th of Feb, Born in 1991, and I'm #9 in my Fraternity I'm apart of (Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia Fraternity of America INC.So The number 9 holds a special place in my heart. Also I have been teaching kids through a company called "Orian Univerisity" and that's been a blessing because in my over 10year musical career, I've had to work with some of the biggest artists in the music industry and also travel this world. I'm from the West Side of Chicago and many people around me or in my family can't say they have had the opportunity to travel the world. I try to work as a vessel of inspiration to my community and those I can inspire and that's with my gift of music.

Business Plan
I plan on creating and releasing more content of my own. I always perform with other artists and bands but along side being a sideman I'm in the process of creating my own lane. I'm based in Chicago and I'm also associated with Chance The Rapper and if you'll have seen his success not only is he thriving in his on career, he also is helping other's through his success. I plan on helping other artists all around the country as creating my own platform for artist to thrive. Coming from Chicago I also want to influence and inspire young kids to get involved more in the arts. Alot of our schools have had many of the music programs cut so I would love to have my own success be a vessel to help the kids, help my city, while helping myself at the same time. Investors should invest in me because I'm an advocate of helping others to the best of my ability. With my contribution, it would be Music but that's at least a lane to get my foot in the door. The bigger picture as I mentioned in my first statement is to help kids, my city, and myself in the process. I know what I can do to make an impact in my community and by showcasing my art and having that pick-up momentum then I can build traction in the brand I'm trying to create and build from there.

Self Identified Competition
Other Artist's in My Field Promotor's Music Labels My humility, thoughtfulness, as well as my character. I learned a quote through Booker T Washington back when I attended Hampton University (an HBCU) in Hampton Virginia. The quote is "Character is Power. If you want to be Powerful in the world, If you want to be strong, influential, and useful: you can be so in no better way, than by having a strong character." That quote will always resonate in my life and by walking a line of Dignity and Respect. No matter what field I'm in or who I meet. I also make sure to show respect, professionalism, and passion. With these elements, I've maintained many great partnerships throughout the world and I want to continue to expand those relationships in my lifetime.
