The DAPS Show

In this episode I am speaking with someone I admire for not only his talent, but his character and integrity. Gavin Ball is a man of his word, a family man, a man of faith, a creative that I am privileged to call a friend. He is an assistant professor, a post-secondary instructor, he also has a Master’s in Digital Communications and Media and the founder the IP Development and Media company Full Circle CS.

I have asked my brother to join me so he can share his journey as well as insight on the creative landscape of artists and more.

In this episode I have the privilege once again to be having another great conversation with a longtime friend whom I also consider a brother from another mother. For years this brother has been speaking out on the injustice of his fellow man. He inspires me to want to do more than I have and is a fresh reminder of what freedom of choice can look like if we weren’t too afraid to try. I have asked my brother Mostafa Fu to join me in shedding some light on the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine in the middle east.

In this exciting and energetic episode I am privileged to be kicking it with a fashion designer. This brother has a different type of motor regarding his drive. A true definition of what an entrepreneur is and throughout the peaks and valleys of his journey his vision has only gotten clearer. He has not only formed and solidified a household brand of The Fraternity but also created a space for every client to stand out amongst the crowd.

Jason Burke is as authentic as they come, a real stand up individual and more significantly a keen business man. This brother is very well respected in all circles because of his character and integrity. This brother has a way of making sure every client leaves looking fresh with every custom outfit he designs, creates and delivers.
