Sure. Well, originally, I'm from Venezuela. I came to Las Vegas in 2002. And I came from a military background. Excuse me. I came from a military background. I had no clue what I was getting into when I got to Vegas, and Vegas was such a hospitality-driven industry.

That was like the pregame. It was insane. I mean, like the fire dancers, the congas playing. It was a really, really cool vibe. It set the precedent for where I was headed in that industry. I started up as a busser and eventually made my way up to the bar. Eventually, 2004, down the road, now we open up The Wind, bar backing, bussing, eventually bartending. We open up... Tao Nightclub in 05.
