What is Sunset59?
Sunset59 is a reflection of who I am—an extension of my experiences, passions, and ideas. It's a business that only I could create, because it’s based on what I know and who I am at my core. As "Client Zero," I build ideas, concepts, and projects that I find cool or that solve problems I face in my own life—problems that, it turns out, others share too.
My journey through life and business has been anything but conventional. I’m a husband who loves his wife, yet for years, I’ve jokingly referred to myself as a "shittygoodhusband." This led me to dream up a service that could help people like me—men who want to be better husbands. And so, I built a business around that idea.
I’m also a dad who wants to be present in my kids’ lives and leave a lasting impact. This desire inspired me to create LEAP, a program designed to engage and inspire kids, helping them grow while allowing me to spend more quality time with my own children.
At heart, I’m a chef. I love food, cooking, and, most importantly, feeding people. There’s nothing more fulfilling to me than bringing people together around a table to share a meal and a moment. This passion drives many of the ventures within Sunset59, from culinary projects to community-focused initiatives.
I have a strong creative streak, though I don’t consider myself an artist—I’m a creator. I’m an "ideas person," constantly generating new concepts, some bad, but many good. I thrive on solving problems, often thinking outside the box, and I find adventure in the process of creation. I’m also a coach and a leader, but what I love most is being part of a team, working together to turn ideas into reality.
Sunset59 is the culmination of all these aspects of my life. It’s not a typical job or a standard business, but it’s exactly what I was meant to build. It’s a business where my skills, passions, and ideas come together, offering something unique that only I could bring to life. Sunset59 is me, and it’s the business I was born to create.
