Gangs on the corner, fights after school, suspension slips piling up. We bounced around a lot between living in Pupuole, Waipahu, Waimalu, Papakolea, and even lived in a parked car. One night I heard from my grandparents that your mom had been in a car accident, I was seven!
and the raw material for everything that came next.
At ten, I found refuge in hip-hop. I would fill notebooks with rhymes, save all my money to buy studio equipment, and take my aggression out in freestyle battles. It was a blast, and I made a name for myself. Notebooks were cheaper than therapy, and this passion led to multiple albums that we released on the streets.
As I got older, I wanted to share my story with my kids through music. I released two albums: “Deadly Se7en” in 2019, which shared part of my journey, and “RageWithSage” in 2020, which explored my alter ego. My youngest son knows all my music and lyrics by heart. He’s my biggest fan and greatest achievement as an artist.
My martial arts journey began at six when I started karate. By sixteen, I was running at dawn and training in boxing and Muay Thai, which was my first taste of discipline. My last sanctioned fight in 2004 ended with my opponent suffering broken ribs. However, the grief from losing my coach halted my rise to Nationals. In 2020, I embraced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which continues to teach me valuable life lessons. I still teach the sweet science whenever gloves are needed. Our kids now train to slay their opponents – the obstacles within themselves.
From real estate and jewelry to Neue Auto (launched during Covid and still award-winning), I later built Atom Corp, Netti Pro, and BOSS, a staffing company transforming how businesses scale while creating global opportunities for underserved communities.
The first jewelry kiosk in Pearlridge and Windward Mall. Started with my then-wife. Grew to multiple locations (Hawai‘i, Vegas, Phoenix).
Sold the Hawai‘i branch for multiple six figures; spun up E-World Trading to wholesale to former competitors.
I started my career at 20 years old as the youngest agent at Prudential Locations. Later, I worked at Century 21, where I learned how to scale my real estate business.
Hung up my license because I became too busy with my other endeavors.
Bartender in clubs, dive bars, and fine dining—reverse-engineered customer-service DNA for future companies.
After navigating challenging years bartending and testing multiple startups, I co-founded Neue Auto in 2020, two weeks before COVID shut the world down.
Signed warehouse lease two weeks before COVID lockdown. Pivoted to mask donations, at-home tows, and within 12 months we still won “Best of Hawai‘i” (’21, ’22) + first national award ever given to a Hawai‘i repair shop (’21).
Holding company to build/buy five pillars every business needs: marketing, sales, staffing, systems, accounting.
