Building Success

As I built my name, I met Anthony Gerardi, the original founder of Partners in Sound Productions. His vision and relentless drive aligned with mine, and together, we saw an opportunity to take things to the next level. That partnership led to an even bigger move—teaming up with Mike Gregorio, the sole proprietor of The Premier Party Network, whose expertise and reputation only strengthened what we were building. Together, the three of us launched Platinum Entertainment, combining our strengths to create something bigger than any of us could have done alone. Years later, we combined forces with Dash of Class, further expanding our reach and influence in the industry.

One of the hardest moments of my career came when my close friend Frank Provenzano, who built Prosho, a leading audio-visual production company, tragically passed away. In the wake of his loss, my partners and I were given the opportunity to continue what he started. But Prosho wasn’t just ours to carry—it was built and run by Joe Russo, the VP, from the very beginning. Together, we ensured Frank’s legacy lived on while continuing to grow Prosho into one of the most respected AV production companies in the industry.
