Celebrities. We have all idealized them at sometime or another, and yet, what makes them so inspiring is that they also go through heart-breaks, complicated relationships, they need to manage their time take risks, decisions, break stereotypes, fight cultural barriers, negotiate, deal with hate, deal with love, deal with parenthood and family in the public eye, and yet they are faithful to themselves and to their dreams.

It all starts small. Sometimes by mistake, or by family ties, others it’s a powerful dream that transcends everything. Loved talking to PJ Aviles, an emerging artist Made in Miami, who is building himself up strongly, and creating beautiful music.

This interview was part of a project I did with Go Daddy, where we interviewed local entrepreneurs to showcase what Miami is made of. Hope you enjoy it!
