explore the stuff where I burned my savings...
these are my projects, businesses, and passions.
SecurityInstant
SecurityInstant was a Cybersecurity focused blog I created in hopes that I could eventually monetize the content and feature sponsorships. This was my first passion project that I launched in hope for it to succeed not only as a business but as a hobby simultaneously. Unfortunately, after writing 30+ blog posts, retaining over 600 visitors/monthly, and about two years of gruelling efforts, I made the tough decision to shut it down due to the immense loss of capital and time I had blown on this venture. However, after walking away from this I gained skills and experiences that aid me in my future endeavors.
KCC Corp.
Originally, I started by purchasing, refurbishing, and selling computer parts. This venture expanded significantly when I brought on two partners, enhancing our capital and operational potential. We managed to scale the business to a level where we could reinvest our capital within days of acquisition. However, the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic devastated the resale market, deterring face-to-face transactions and leaving our inventory unsold. This situation drove the final nail in the coffin for our business.
Phenomenon Collective
Phenomenon Collective began as a fleeting dream, a spark of inspiration that could have easily faded away. Yet, with passion and determination, it became a vibrant reality. This clothing brand is not just a business; it's a movement designed to empower individuals to discover and embrace their unique "phenomenon", their ultimate purpose, and potential. Every piece of clothing I design is something I am excited to wear, embodying the essence of self-expression and authenticity. Built from the ground up without external assistance, Phenomenon Collective stands as a testament to the power of belief and the spirit of innovation, inspiring others to achieve their greatest aspirations.
