I am serial entrepreneur who has had a some crazy luck of being ahead of the curb. I sold my first company to COREL when I was just 17 years old (it was a desktop publishing template). I produced a feature film for Columbia Pictures (Snowboard Academy: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117676/), my production company was called Millennium Multimedia and we were mistaken by IATA to be a Y2K company, so we became one. I created a software called the Millennium Bug Toolkit which was allegedly installed (for free) in 1 out of every 4 computers prior to Dec 31 1999. Our company went public but I was fired for calling Y2K bullshit in Aug 1999 and became the founding CTO of American Apparel. In 2002 I created the world's first medical tourism company. It was very successful initially but I flew too close to the sun and destroyed it. After three years of dealing with my failure and building apps for others, I am now out there being a CTO/App developer for others while working on my next big thing.
