My guest today is a website developer and designer, graphic artist, podcast producer, music and video maker, as well as an entrepreneur.

He wants to teach people how to make money and have a blast in the process, as he believes that it's possible to make money online by simply being yourself and being creative.

My guest has built a passive income stream through what he calls passion mashing, which involves trying to blend a business idea with a personal passion. His current projects include Roasty Coffee, a resource on how to find, brew and drink great coffee, and Swim University, a website that teaches people how to take care of their pools and hot tubs.
