At Ampersand, he’s tapped into an ecosystem that aligns with that pace, where proximity turns into opportunity.
Tell us a little about what you do.
I move across multiple lanes, including fashion design, motivational speaking, investing, and philanthropy. Everything I do is centered around building something meaningful and creating long-term impact. It’s not a schedule, it’s a lifestyle, 24/7.
What inspires/motivates you to get out of bed?
CVLZD and my community. That responsibility alone keeps me locked in.
What is the one thing you can’t live without?
My kids, aka Kianna-Marie, Marley & Yoko.
Where do your brightest ideas come from?
Solitude. Early mornings around 5 am, during meditation, long drives, or sitting by the lake. That’s where clarity shows up.
There is your favorite place to decompress & unwind?
The gym, the golf course, a chess match, or a cigar lounge with a good book. I keep it simple and intentional.
When do you feel your best, and what do you do to stay in the vibration?
When I’m outside, running, traveling, and connecting. Being in different environments sharpens perspective. At the end of the day, your net worth is tied to your network, so I stay in rooms that challenge and expand me.
Tell us something we don’t know about you.
Reading didn’t come easily to me growing up; I had a learning disability. Now it’s a daily discipline. I read every night before bed. What used to be a weakness became something I genuinely enjoy.
What made you decide to join Ampersand?
The energy, the people, and the location. It’s close to Wynwood but still its own lane, focused, elevated, and built for real connection.
