Business Timeline
This is not a résumé.
It is the chronological index to the Business Vault, documenting more than four decades of music, technology, public markets, entrepreneurship, and the companies that shaped that journey.
Every major milestone connects to a documented Executive Record where available.
Follow the chronology or open any Executive Record to examine the original evidence behind that chapter.
Volume I · 1981–1993
The Music Years
The journey begins in music: performing, touring, learning the discipline of recording, and building the first rooms where creative work became an operating business. Those studios introduced the technology, systems, and entrepreneurial instincts that would later carry the story onto networks, the Internet, and public markets.
Beyond Vancouver
International touring expands the music chapter beyond the local scene and places the emerging career inside a wider professional industry.

Open Executive Record →Volume III · 2001–2010
Wall Street &
Public Markets
The center of gravity shifts to New York. Company building now requires financing, securities structures, public filings, cross-border transactions, and the discipline to separate a promising opportunity from a completed result. The Internet chapter becomes a Wall Street education.
NextLevel and Wiremix Unite
Two digital businesses combine services and operations, creating the transaction bridge between the Internet chapter and the public-market work that follows.

Open Executive Record →Inside the Russia Chapter
Two years after the public-company chapter began, contemporaneous photographs carry the story into New York and Moscow meetings connected to NNRF, now preserved as a historically sequenced photographic exhibit.
Open Executive Record →Croatia and Montenegro
A prepaid debit-platform chapter in Croatia and Montenegro remains part of the chronology but requires its final dates and documentary connection before a complete Executive Record can open.
Executive Record Coming SoonVolume IV · 2011–2020
Building Again
After a decade shaped by capital markets, the work returns to building operating companies. Live events, food production, healthcare, music, and acquisition vehicles become distinct expressions of the same practice: organize the people, capital, systems, and evidence required to move an idea forward.

A reverse-merger and clinic-development strategy becomes a documented case study in financing, control, governance, and the distinction between corporate opportunity and outcome.
