Who Is DamianJay?

Air Force vet. Filipino American from Oakland. Colorado Springs local. I went from teaching electrical systems to running digital marketing strategy for agencies, then built Bourbon Bass & Barbells on the side because I needed a place to be myself.

I train Olympic weightlifting under Norik Vardanian. I hold a Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt. I’ve managed $400K/month in e-commerce, grown a client from $225K to $500K/month via a single A/B test, and built BBB to 10K+ followers without spending a dollar on ads.

I also just became a dad. So yeah, the morning routine hits different now.
