Look at that thing glow !!!
Its a glacier in skagway alaska
I wanted to start with an introduction post to give a little background about me. I grew up as a simple child who enjoyed life to the fullest. As I grew older, I realized how hard it was to connect with people on a deeper level, so I learned some tricks to communicate with them. But I found myself wearing a mask, not showing my true self to anyone. However, I was blessed with the gift of travel, thanks to my parents who took me on adventures around the world.
One of the most interesting stories I have to share is about a glacier in Alaska that was named after me. At just two years old, I landed on the glacier with my family during a helicopter tour, and my curious grandma asked the pilot if it had a name. When he said no, she suggested naming it after the youngest client they had ever had, which was me. And so, a glacier was named after me, and I knew I was destined for greatness.
Despite facing some challenges in middle school, including getting into trouble and making friends with the wrong crowd, I never gave in to drug use or other temptations. Instead, I focused on becoming a showman and magician, which eventually helped me turn my academic performance around. I made honor roll with straight A's in my last year of high school, proving that I could accomplish anything if I put my mind to it.
As Bret Amazzeing, a former troublemaker turned magician, I used my talents to bring joy and laughter to people. I even started a non-profit organization called "We Share Smiles." One day, I met Richard Basciano, a property developer known for controversial business investments. But to my surprise, Richard showed kindness and warmth, inviting me to entertain homeless people in New York on Christmas Day. Instead of paying me for my services, Richard donated money to my organization, empowering us to deliver 250 custom-made puppets to orphanages in Mexico. This experience taught me that there are people in need all around the world, and I was grateful for the opportunities and abilities to make a difference.
Richard was a dear friend who recently passed away, leaving a void in my heart. But his spirit lives on and motivates me, as seen in a video I shot of him training. I continued to travel the world, making every step count. One memorable moment was when I met some aboriginals in Australia and was invited to film a short documentary of their sacred lands. This led me to explore more of Australia and attend a world music conference. Later, I fulfilled a promise made by a couch-surfing Ambassador in Houston to meet her in India at an orphanage. There, I met new friends who took me to the Himalayan Mountains, Ganges River, and many temples before being invited to a palace in Churu. Although I felt trapped at first, I found joy performing magic for street children who named me Oodia Baba. When I returned for a royal wedding, I was welcomed like a prince and forever grateful for the hospitality shown to me.
Life can be unpredictable and difficult, as I learned when both my dad and stepdad passed away within a few months of each other, and my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. We had to sell off two estates and move to a new home. In the midst of the pain, I decided to travel to Sierra Leone, where I worked with children who had suffered greatly but still found joy in the little things. Later, in Los Angeles, I found myself stranded and homeless for a night, but was eventually saved by a friend. While in LA, I also discovered a new passion for photography and used it to help a model upgrade her portfolio. Through all the ups and downs, I learned that life is full of surprises and opportunities for growth.

Imagine building my photography portfolio in Florida, hiring a makeup artist, hairstylist, and two models, only to find that my chosen location was closed. Luckily, one of the models invited me to her mansion in Miami, where I accidentally broke my main camera. Despite this setback, I was still able to capture some amazing shots and even met a Playboy photographer who taught me valuable lessons about the industry. My adventures didn't end there, as I soon found myself working with a man named Fish who built stages for massive outdoor festivals like Ultra Music Festival, which I had never heard of before. This led to a whirlwind of travel and work at some of the biggest events in the country, from NASCAR to the NCAA Championships. It just goes to show that saying "yes" to unexpected opportunities can lead to exciting and unexpected adventures.

I had been working in event production for years, but things started to feel less thrilling. I moved to Los Angeles with Fish to work with Sam Sewell and got involved in Bitcoin. I had an idea to create an Electronic Dance Festival that only accepted cryptocurrency as payment and wrote a movie to go with it. I invested my life savings, but the team fell apart and the money was lost. I then invested in Hoverboards and started @hoverboardhotties on Instagram, but they ended up causing damage and getting seized by customs. I found myself living on skid row and hitchhiked to 56 cities, but none of the opportunities promised to me panned out.
After facing setbacks and feeling lost, I found hope and a new direction in life by using my talents to capture content for stream restoration projects. I then reconnected with friends on Long Island and found work creating content for a friend's company in long island NY, but unfortunately, the business closed. Along the way, I met a Bulgarian woman and we have been building a future together, traveling to Europe, Mexico, Bulgaria, and Spain. I now feel that it's time to start building our own family. Life has been unpredictable and adventurous, but I am looking forward to what the future holds.

After Covid, I was introduced to an app called Clubhouse where I invested 2 years of my life onboarding over 150k people into the Crypto, NFT’s and Defi. Always learning and exploring all the possibilities technology has to offer. Meeting Milan Cheeks, Glassy, Pips, Albert and many others in this time opened new doors of opportunity which I look forward to sharing as the projects unfold.
