If you know Rami, then you know he’s a natural-born hustler. He arrived in Austin in 1993 with $475 to his name, and opened up the best Italian restaurant in the city just seven years later. It’s all because he believes in the power of never giving up on your dreams, staying inspired, and remaining positive as you connect with others who think big.

He’s also a natural connector who loves hearing about other people’s journeys and learning about their paths, insights, and perspectives. Rami not only believes that “everyone has a story,” but that incredible things can happen when you share that story with the rest of the world. 

When he’s not acting as CEO of 3OneProductions, OpticTour Agency and Restaurant Black Ops. or interviewing fascinating people on Talk2Rami, he is coaching and consulting with top-level executives, managers, and decision-makers.
