Chapter 8:
As I look back on the journey that has brought me to this point, I’m struck by how much life has taught me—often in ways I didn’t expect. Each chapter, each twist in the road, has left its mark, building layers of resilience, adaptability, and understanding. From the bustling streets of Port-au-Prince to the vibrant shores of Punta Cana, life has been a series of beginnings and endings, each one preparing me for the next.
My journey began in Haiti, shaped by my family, my culture, and the early lessons of love and loss. Losing my mother at a young age taught me the value of family, of sticking together even in the hardest times. It was there, amidst the warmth and strength of my family, that I learned the importance of resilience—a lesson that would carry me through many of life’s challenges. Haiti was my foundation, a place that taught me to stand tall and never forget my roots.
In Santiago, I found my passion for music, a love that transformed into a career and ultimately shaped my identity. DJ INFINITI wasn’t just a name; it was a part of who I was. Through music, I discovered a way to connect with people, to create joy, and to express parts of myself that words couldn’t capture. DJing wasn’t just about entertainment; it was about building a community, about bringing people together through shared moments of happiness. Music became my sanctuary, a reminder that even in the darkest times, there is always a rhythm to life, a beat to carry us forward.
Punta Cana was my rebirth—a place where dreams took on new forms. When I arrived, I was a young man with big ambitions and a heart full of hope. I built a name for myself on the Malibu party boat, creating experiences that brought people together and left a lasting impact. Those years as DJ INFINITI were some of the best of my life, a time when everything felt possible. The presence of Punta Cana beer, the support of Radio Kool, and the energy of the crowds transformed the boat into more than just a party venue; it was a symbol of everything I loved—music, connection, and the beauty of the Caribbean.
But life, as I’ve learned, doesn’t always go as planned. The rise and fall of Banica Group was a humbling reminder of that truth. Building my own company was a dream come true, a testament to the hard work and passion I had invested over the years. Yet, it was also a lesson in the complexities of trust, the importance of vigilance, and the reality that success is often fragile. Losing the company was painful, a chapter I had hoped would end differently. But even in that loss, I found something invaluable: the strength to start over, to learn from my mistakes, and to carry those lessons with me into the future.
Now, as a Marketing Manager, I’ve found a sense of peace and purpose that has grounded me in new ways. My role at the clinic isn’t about fame or excitement; it’s about service, about helping people and supporting a community that has become my own. Every day, I work to make a difference, to use my skills in ways that bring value to others. It’s a quieter path than the one I once envisioned, but it’s no less meaningful. Through my work, I’ve learned that success doesn’t always need an audience; sometimes, it’s found in the quiet moments of dedication and care.
Each chapter of my life has taught me something unique, something that has shaped the person I am today. I am no longer just a DJ or an entrepreneur; I am a storyteller, a builder, a person who has seen the highs and lows of life and emerged with a deeper understanding of what truly matters. My journey has shown me that resilience isn’t about avoiding failure; it’s about finding the strength to get up, to keep moving forward, even when the road is unclear.
I am proud of the path I’ve walked, even with its setbacks and challenges. Every success, every failure, every twist and turn has brought me closer to my purpose. I’ve learned that life is a series of new beginnings, each one an opportunity to grow, to learn, and to become a better version of ourselves. The road ahead may still hold unknowns, but I’m ready for whatever comes, knowing that every experience has prepared me for it.
As I look toward the future, I carry with me the lessons of love, resilience, and hope. I am grateful for the people who have walked beside me, for the opportunities I’ve been given, and for the strength that has carried me through. My journey is far from over, but with each new beginning, I am reminded that life is a gift—a gift that I am determined to honor, one step at a time.
