Who was/is the most profound male influence in your life and why? My father. He has taught me to live a life on what I am passionate and not to chase trends just because it pays well. He also is of the highest integrity. 4. Who is the most influential woman in your life and why? It’s a 3 way tie with: 1. My mom for being a role model and showing me to never settle and to aim high. 2. My aunt, my mom’s sister, for showing me how to take a passion and be an entrepreneur around it. 3. My business partner on DreamItAlive.com, Anita Rani, for teaching me the importance of mindfulness, meditation and for introducing me and the world to DreamItAlive.com.. 5. What is your personal motto/mantra? “The world is yours. Make it beautiful and unforgettable.” 6. What advice would you give young men and women? Be more present with focus on every activity. Be your best self by acting and doing things authentic. Do daily habits and rituals that elevate you. Live, Repeat, Share! #BeTheExample #DreamItAlive 7. What causes are you passionate about and why? Besides DreamItAlive.com; I am passionate about entrepreneurship organizations that help people with resources to live their Dream calling. I am chairman of a large southern California based one called Tech Coast Venture Network! 8. How do you contribute to your community and why? I do this by living an authentic life and leading by actions not just preaching it! 9. What is your definition of being man versus being a boy? A man knows or is on his path to find their purpose, can accept constructive criticism and serves to make the world a better world. A boy lacks this awareness and isn’t conscious enough to realize they need to become a man. 10.
