Allison Ross is a violin player and classical musician based in Kansas where she performs with several orchestras and symphonies. Since the COVID-19 pandemic musicians have faced many challenges, and Allison broke the silence when the restrictions from one of her orchestras made it so challenging to be an orchestra performer that she decided that it was better to not play at all. She is also a music professor, gives private lessons, and is a big advocate for independent musicians to have multiple streams of revenue. In this conversation, we discuss her story with her orchestra, side hustles, making a living as a classical musician, her involvement with the Libertarian Party of Kansas, and much more.

Ivan Vargas is a Videographer and Animator whose journey has led him through the world of TV commercials, film, music, and sacrificing your dreams for family. He’s a man that always put his family first, and is even willing to put his dreams on hold. Ivan has had an amazing journey and tells some inspiring stories. His story is a total underdog story of someone that never gives up to make themselves a better human being by having an endless thirst for knowledge and self-development. From 208 to 2012 he worked with me at the Plaza Live in Orlando, FL as their Bar Manager, and has also helped me behind the scenes with many of my artists. This was such a fun conversation!
