Quality is not an act...

Before bouncing at the world’s largest gentlemen’s club, Ron worked as a musician and as an on-air radio DJ. The stage and the ropes aren’t so different—both require presence, charisma, and keeping the crowd in check.

Ron can craft a custom poem on a vintage typewriter in minutes. Whether it’s heartbreak, humor, or a wild request, he’s typed it all—often in front of curious (and sometimes inebriated) crowds.

Ron’s writing pulls no punches—whether it’s his raw memoir, gritty dialogue, or sharp-witted observations. From addiction to nightlife chaos, he tells it like it is, giving readers an unfiltered look into worlds most only glimpse from the outside.

Ron launched a print-on-demand business selling vintage-inspired graphic tees. Music legends, oddball art, and cult classics—if it’s got character, it’s probably on a shirt.
