Current Work

As a visa holder in Europe I have added two new work titles to my resume: consultant and delivery driver.  Additionally I have dusted off my old skills in business development, technology, fashion and philanthropy and am working on my latest company that is centered around human connection.  

Fashion 

Life is often about taking a chance on the opportunity in front of you. And for some reason, I was given an opportunity to make clothes for a potential first round draft pick in June of 2016.  I had never made clothes on that kind of stage, never been to New York and never worked with a sports agency or an athlete.  But when asked if I could do it I said yes. Borrowed some money from my friend and went to New York for the first time as I figured out the rest in real time. A month later, the Sacramento Kings hired me to make 50 tuxedoes in a month and I delivered. Then I got a call from the UTAH Jazz, then the New York Knicks and that is how my small startup label that I called Adriaen Black became the go to label for professional athletes as I went from homelessness to becoming internationally recognized in under 18 months. Not bad for a guy that was eating out of trash cans just 18 months prior.

Tech & Events

I once built a tech company in my mid 20s called CityGuru. Its purpose was to allow tourists local type of experiences, such as eating with the chef in his kitchen, or a secret menu, lovingly with my name on it, or a pizza that had so much flavor, it was too good to be on the menu.  This little startup of mine, won every award at Seattles top investor pitch events. Google, Microsoft and Intercontinental Hotels named it the top new travel and tech company at the time.  The idea to turn our phones into a mini concierge, giving you access to insider exclusives would later become known as one of the top events brands in the city as I worked with City of Seattle and large companies like Starbucks and iconic brands like The Space Needle producing the most talked about events and local experiences the city ever saw from the time I recreated the spaghetti scene from Lady in the Tramp, in an actual alley, with everything Italian from the table clothes, the wine, the according player, to the spaghetti and meatballs as the movie played in the background.  To the timeI knighted the most influential people in Seattle for SeaFair and that time I had the hottest guys walk adoptable dogs down the runway for my popular Hot Men and Cute Pups fashion shows.  You know. I really did have fun creating experiences and events and miss this more than I realize. 

3D Manufacturing

I taught myself low level cad so I could design a part for my dogs motorized pee pad I built her. This led me to find a local manufacturer in Chicago where I actually got hired as their VP.  I loved this opportunity, not just because it got me back into the work force after the Pandemic, but it proved to me that I could still learn new things.  It did amazing things for my self esteem and is the reason I did so much volunteer work for the city of Chicago.

Health and Fitness

After working at the 3D manufacturing company, I needed a new job in a city called Des Moines Iowa, so that I could be closer to my parents.  TBH, I kind of felt like I may lose my battle with my mental health, because I could not figure out who I needed to be any longer.  The redemption story, or the revenge one. I wanted to spend some time with them before I made that choice and because of my new fondness for blood and hormones, thanks to the Andrew Huberman podcast, I became well versed in understanding the human body.  So much so, one of the top health clinics hired me as their VP, where I managed new protocols and again proved to myself that I can step into nearly any field and excel.
