Origins of Boundless Innovations -
My grandfather was an inventor, and my Great grandfather knew Thomas Edison. As a result, I was inspired to keep the family tradition alive by becoming an independent inventor/innovator also. Way back in 1987, my first multi-million dollar car safety idea suddenly illuminated in my minds – eye, while I was laying in the back seat of my parents car. However, I was only a kid at the time and just a few years later the side impact beams that are placed in Car, van, and truck doors that I first thought of in the spring of 1987, came out and dominated the market. Throughout my life many of my exact ideas hit the market. Several were extremely successful, especially my product, and business ideas. I did not purse my inventions, because my parents advised me to wait until I was an adult. In addition, while I was a child my parents did not have the time or resources to help me with my inventive passion, nor did they encourage me since inventing can be a risky business. As a result, I did not even think about pursing any of my inventions until many years later. I always dreamed of creating and inventing things, but my interest in education postponed my initiative to take action. I would love to spend a 1,000 years in college but that not realistic in the era than we live in today. However, futurists predict that one day, people will live in good health for hundreds of years and will pursue multiple careers, so perhaps this dream of mine will be possible for future generations. Several college and university professors inspired and encouraged me to pursue my inventive passion, however my educational experience at Disney University truly gave me everlasting faith I needed to believe in all of my wild dreams. In college, I enrolled in an entrepreneurship class and met a very kind and helpful man who worked with me on several of my ideas until he passed away. Before, he died he told me to enroll in an Invention class that was offered in my college. Sure enough I enrolled and met two other wonderful professors. One was physicist and a former NJ inventor of the year, and the other professor was an intellectual property attorney. They teamed up and taught this dynamic class together, and I will never forget them or the class. These professors made inventing interesting and fun, plus they provided me with the knowledge, tools and confidence to go forth with my dreams. Especially due to the fact that many of my ideas hit the top ten list in the class. In addition, these professors truly believed in me, and encouraged me to purse my Innovative passion, and that really felt good. Not all professors take the time to listen, coach and inspire students. It’s my dream that one day all teachers, coaches and parents will do the same, because without positive and supporting role models many kids, teenagers, and adults will never realize their true potential. While, I was in this Invention class, I met another very talented friend who intends to purse a law degree. He is one of my business advisors, and partners on Boundless Innovations entrepreneur team. He has many great product, business, and political ideas, and together we are working to make unrealized dreams become possible. In addition, my best friend who is a mathematician, a musician, a businessman, a real-estate business developer, a financial advisor, and has many law connections truly believes in my ideas, and also has some of his own and together we are also working to make unrealized dreams become possible.
