Co-Founder
Utmosis
(Entertainment industry)
May 2004 — May 2007 (3 years 1 month)
Shortly after having moved to San Francisco to co-found Utmosis, my main emphasis was in managing and maintaining new artists, all the while maintaining current musical and personal relationships. Having seen the bland future of the company due to a lack of creativity, I finally decided it was time to get my feet wet and move onward towards a culminating, successful venture. I started BonsaiBeats shortly after.
