    In an era where Doc Brown and a kid named Marty McFly took you for a ride through time more than once, is where my story starts. I've worn many hats in my professional career. I've taken a daily newsletter and turned into a profitable business. I've designed and developed athletic apparel for one of the biggest brands in the world. I've also successfully marketed 2 motorcycle brands to different consumers at the same time. Hi, I'm Brad.
