A Southern original in the city

When sales meets entrepreneurship.
Host, cook, creator, community builder, and living proof that one lane was never going to be enough.

The many facets
One life.
Full range.
Sales. Storytelling. Food. Media. Community. Entrepreneurship. Different expressions, same man.
A life with some seasoning
The work looks
like the life.
Some days the story is healing. Some days it is leadership. Some days it is a sandwich that had no business being that good.

Multifacet
A raw, reflective podcast about evolving in real time, refusing to be boxed into one lane, and becoming more solid without making yourself smaller.

Recipes, kitchen runs, and food made with enough personality to talk back.

Southern soul.
City pace.
Small-town roots.
Big-city rhythm.
I brought the warmth, the work ethic, and the ability to talk to anybody. New York gave it sharper edges.
I’m from Richmond, Kentucky, and I say it proudly. Home taught me hospitality, humor, faith, grit, and that people remember how you make them feel.
New York gave me scale, pace, and permission to become all the versions of myself at once. This site is where those versions finally get to share the same address.
I’m driving by faith.My belief in God keeps me grounded, gives me direction when the next move is not obvious, and reminds me that becoming is bigger than any title or plan.
The DeMarcus mix
- Southern, never sleepy
- Ambitious, never robotic
- Polished, still funny
- Multifaceted on purpose
About me · After hours
I make things.
Then make more things.
If I’m not building a brand, I’m probably building a beat, a Lego set, a garden, a skincare formula, a playlist, or an unnecessarily detailed opinion about a new piece of tech.
Hydroponics · Lego · Skincare · Cooking
I like starting with pieces and ending with something that did not exist before.
Bikes · E-bikes · Long walks
My favorite way to understand a city is to move through it without rushing past it.
Gadgets · Products · Family help desk
Yes, I’m the go-to tech person in my family. No, I do not want to work in IT. Please restart it first.
The through line
Stay curious.That’s how one interest became many facets.
Promote diligence.Talent is cute. Showing up is what changes things.
Tell the whole story.I speak openly about keloids, discipline, confidence, healing, and becoming—because somebody else may need the honest version.
Still building. Still becoming.
Career · Sales
Before the brands,
I learned people.
My years in sales became the foundation for how I lead and build today. I learned how to read a room, earn trust, find the real need, and create growth without losing the human connection.

The entrepreneurial chapter is not a side note. It is where years of selling, serving, storytelling, and making people feel something turn into businesses with a real point of view.

Hear the story ↗My New York playbook
NYC, according
to DeMarcus.
Not a tourist guide. Just how I actually eat, move, wander, date, dance, and show people around this ridiculous city.
Ride by the water
Bike or e-bike, bridge views, good weather, and absolutely no reason to rush home.
Walk with no agenda
Headphones in, neighborhood hopping, and letting one good block turn into twelve.
Make the train ride worth it
A real food mission, something I cannot make at home, and dessert getting its own vote.
Music, drinks, and a grown crowd
Live sets, good bars, and dance floors that do not feel like a college reunion.
Give the night a plot
Dinner, one unexpected stop, a long walk, and enough room to actually talk.
Show friends my New York
Brooklyn energy, skyline moments, something cultural, and one absurdly good meal.

Bring the idea.
I’ll bring the range.
I work best with people who recognize a point of view when they see one. If it has taste, personality, and a reason to exist, let’s talk.
