DeSernia's main inspiration is bringing value to society. He started this adventure out of his bedroom at the age of 22 years old, with no financial backing.

He is constantly diversifying, using his unique ability to profitably grow companies by controlling the demand. He is giving back to the community by working with cancer organizations and dog shelters with both monetary and product donations that resonate most with his consumers. Even a tour of the 30,000 sq. ft campus in South East Florida will showcase the magic that is being made within their walls.
