"A trip to Ibiza in September 2024 changed everything for me. Watching icons like Jamie Jones, Michael Bibi, and Chris Stussy perform live for the first time was an unforgettable experience that lit a creative spark. The energy, the music, and the atmosphere completely shifted my perspective. I became interested with everything happening behind the scenes—the planning, production, management, and dedication it took to bring it all to life. That trip sparked the vision for TRADEMARK—I knew I wanted to be more than a fan and that I wanted to create something forever lasting in the scene."
