His doctorate studies led him to create a symposium and graduate course on "Rock and Roll Entrepreneurship"  which serves as the foundation for bringing key music stakeholders together to do good.  At a young age, he lost his father to kidney cancer. He knows first-hand the difference that early detection and treatment can make.  As Founder and Chairman of the Board of Directors, his passion serves as the driving force for our team.
