I’ve always been someone who chases speed, precision, and a little bit of calculated chaos. Whether I’m flying a plane, riding a motorcycle, or taking a performance car through the canyons, I thrive in environments where my senses are fully alive. Over time, I realized that this love for high-adrenaline experiences isn’t just a lifestyle—it’s a mindset. And that mindset has shaped everything about how I run my businesses, especially DRIVELA.

A lot of people separate hobbies from work. I don’t. I’ve found that the same principles that keep you alive and thriving in high-risk hobbies—focus, control, instinct—are the exact traits that lead to success as a business leader.

From Security to Startups

Before I launched DRIVELA, I spent years working in private security. It was high-pressure, nonstop, and unpredictable. I ran security for music festivals, celebrity details, and large-scale events. I’ve been in situations where one wrong decision could escalate fast. You had to stay cool, stay sharp, and most importantly, stay ahead.

That background taught me how to operate under pressure and lead in real time. There’s no “pause button” when you’re responsible for the safety of high-profile clients. That kind of training translated directly into the business world. Whether I’m running logistics for our car fleet or navigating a customer issue, I carry that same intensity and attention to detail. In my world, every second counts.

Turning Passion Into Business

DRIVELA wasn’t just a business idea—it was a passion project turned profession. I’ve always loved cars. Not just the look or sound, but the feeling of what happens when you’re in control of something powerful, fast, and beautiful. That experience is addictive, and I knew other people felt the same way.

I started DRIVELA to bring that feeling to more people, and to do it with intention. Not just renting out cars—but creating moments. Whether it’s someone’s first time behind the wheel of a Ferrari or a seasoned driver looking for their next thrill, we deliver more than a car. We deliver a full, luxury automotive experience that’s curated, elevated, and unforgettable.

Adrenaline is Fuel—If You Use It Right

Adrenaline is often misunderstood. People think it means going fast, taking wild risks, or living on the edge. But for me, adrenaline isn’t about chaos—it’s about clarity. When you’re flying a plane or taking a tight corner on a bike, your mind clears. You stop overthinking. You become present. That’s a rare and powerful state of mind—and it’s where I do my best thinking.

In business, that same clarity is gold. When tough decisions come up, I don’t panic—I assess, decide, and move. That’s something I learned in the air, on the road, and on the job in security. There’s a deep discipline in the adrenaline mindset. It’s not recklessness—it’s confidence built on preparation and experience.

Balance Through Motion

For me, staying physically and mentally active through my hobbies is how I stay balanced. I make time to ride, to fly, to drive—because that’s what keeps my energy sharp. Those moments away from the laptop or boardroom are where I get clarity, perspective, and often, my best ideas.

The pace of entrepreneurship is relentless. If you don’t have an outlet, it’ll eat you alive. My outlet just happens to involve engines and altitude. But the real point is: when your body and mind are engaged at a high level, you’re better equipped to lead, to innovate, and to push through the tough days.

Building DRIVELA with a High-Performance Mindset

DRIVELA is more than a business to me—it’s a reflection of my mindset. Everything we do is performance-driven. From the vehicles we offer to the way we treat our clients, we hold ourselves to a high standard. That standard comes from my background. In security, there are no do-overs. You either get it right, or someone gets hurt. I’ve brought that same precision and accountability into the business world.

We don’t aim to be the biggest in the industry—we aim to be the best. That means focusing on the experience, obsessing over the details, and making every interaction count. The luxury space is unforgiving when it comes to mistakes. So, we build trust through consistency, and loyalty through excellence.

Stay Ahead or Get Left Behind

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is that you can never get too comfortable. The minute you stop evolving, you start fading. Markets shift. Trends change. Expectations rise. That’s why I treat business like I treat my hobbies—you have to stay sharp, stay tuned in, and always be ready to adapt.

DRIVELA is constantly evolving. We’re adding new cars, exploring new tech, listening to customer feedback, and finding ways to stay ahead of the curve. That’s how you build something that lasts. You don’t just ride the wave—you make your own.

At the end of the day, whether I’m flying through the sky or building a business, the mindset is the same: focus, act, adapt. High-performance isn’t about being flashy—it’s about being ready. It’s about building habits, trusting your instincts, and chasing something bigger than comfort.

That’s what adrenaline means to me. It’s not just a rush—it’s a way of operating. It keeps me moving forward, keeps me sharp, and reminds me why I started all of this in the first place.

Every day is another chance to push the limit. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.
