Inspirations.

This is a weird one; I am unsure of what inspires me, I think I am driven by the promise of success and and fear of failure, but at the same time choices I make can be radical and based off a whim.  

However I do know that my dad Inspires me greatly. 

 --- He's the one with the long hair in the back, oh yeah and that is my mom and my sister. 

But the main reason is is my main inspiration is his story.  He grew up in New York in a part called Merrick and what he did was make his own business, basically starting at 13.  He would take the train to Madison Square Garden (and other surrounding arenas) and would buy and resell tickets, basically a scalper, well some 30 years later he is still doing it, but as a member of the NATB (National Association of Ticket Brokers) and he wholesales to other brokers.  He started his own business AND ran it together with my mom and that is how I am here today, and that is why I got to lead the life I got to was because of him, so I really do think my main inspiration comes in my fathers commitment to making myself and my siblings and my mom happy. 

Also I can't lie, GQ and Esquire are HUGE inspirations to me as I pursue fashion design.  Because I want to design men's clothing it makes sense that I have an understanding of what is in fashion, what looks good and where it is going.
