theodore Hadjis

Family man that loves music, cooking, coffee, travel, dancing, sports, specially, soccer and golf, anything outdoors and dogs. I grew in the restaurant business in Iowa. Doing everything from food prep to cooking and serving to cleaning bathrooms and building walls and fixing roofs. I went to college in Providence, RI with a bunch a chefs and business majors. While there, I worked in restaurants, valeted cars and spent a lot of time in Boston, walking and eating and watching the Red Sox. I spent about a year abroad, as well, in Budapest and The Hague, both were amazing. After school, I moved to Portland, OR and then down to Southern California. Eventually, I landed in Chicago, and started working in advertising. That took me to Shanghai for a year and change, and allowed me to travel all over the world thereafter. All in about 20 years in corporate America managing agencies and building global businesses. It was great until it wasn't. I stepped away in Dec. and have spent the last couple months with my family and focused on exercising and meditating, reading, listening to music and cooking. Activities that are grounding, happy and many times end up up with some kind of dancing. Now, I've evaluating what's next. Buying a small business. Acting. Developing content. All things that bring emotions to the surface, whether it's how you run them or what you put into them.
