daring to do something since 2022

As Demetrius Ventures evolves into it’s 5th year, we are channeling refine and re-focus energy for the year ahead. Stay tuned for new website design, and other plans for things taking shape in early 2026. In the meanwhile, here are a few photos of Demetrius’ ventures.

Just to clear a things up, the name sake of this self-employment/independent contracting venture is inspired by a favorite space opera of mine, not a love for venture capital.

In late 2021, knowing I needed to make some changes to find a new sense of balance, purpose and continued self-actualization, I embarked on a venture, or as one might describe it, the Demetrius Ventures, in the hopes of yielding high returns in the personal growth, professional development, and community engagement and resilience building categories. I do believe I am continuing to come out on top as I further align my life’s work with my values both personally and professionally. Yes, this is only the teaser to the more full story still to come. Rome wasn’t built in a day, but they were laying bricks every hour. In the meantime, here are some categories of service I have contracted for outside of my day job.

  • General Bookkeeping & Administrative Assistance
  • Event Staffing
  • Rental Property Host (Turo, AirBNB)
  • Rental Property Owner & Manager
  • Pet Companionship – Overnight and Drop-in Care
  • Housesitting
