Q: Who were the idols or people who inspired you? Did you ever have a mentor?
A: This is a really easy answer. I've never been a big fan of any business idols. That includes Marc Cuban, or anybody like that. Really the only two business people who have over-indexed for me are Walt Disney and Vince McMann and that was because they were major storytellers, but I never looked up to them. There were no Steve Jobs or Donald Trump type people in my life. My life has always been focused on two people: Tamara and Sasha Vaynerchuk. Tamara gave me the HR/People skills foundations, and Sasha gave me the work-ethic.
