Summary
Mike is a DIY saxophonist/songwriter with a powerful sound & creative outlook on both music and entrepreneurship. Fans include HuffPost, @NPRMusic, Evernote, Spotify and more. He's managed to hit nearly 2 million streams in the first 2 years of his recording career, without a record label or team - rare if not unheard of in jazz.
Top 3 Value Bombs:
1. Let things flow and realize that there’s not really mistakes. Even if there are, it’s actually an opportunity to play something else.
2. Realize the core skills and the core passion. It’s not just loving entrepreneurship. What’s about it that you love?
3. Law of attraction is when you’re holding a vision in your mind of what you want, what you’re seeking, and allowing the universe to deliver that to you as long as you put the work in as well.
