Meet Tomas Barel

We had the good fortune of connecting with tomas barel and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi tomas, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
my thought process was to do what i love, so i started my carrer by doing content, (youtube videos and streams) and then i got a little bit bored of doing streams everyday and at the same time i started loving going to the music studio and record songs. so i keep going with that. i practiced a lot by myself from the shadows. i wanted to be a good artist before i start working with other producers. I always say, do what you love and if you still dont know what you love, try lots of things and one day you will find it. thats your purpose. If you are working in something you dont like that much, try to spent your free time on what you love, not on a random distraction.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Since i kid i loved the english culture, the language, the music, everything. So now, that i am 25 years old, i do music in spanish and english, and that makes me different. It wasnt a easy journey, it took days, years. but i never doubt of me. thats the key. Having confidence on me made me stay consistent, made me recognize what i could do better and challenge myself.
I highly reccomend to be PATIENT, is so important. Be patient and dont doubt, if you have to burn all your boats to follow your dreams, DO IT.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Im in miami right now, i love the beach so i would def take them to the beach. I love key biscayne because there is not to much people, you can connect with nature and the natural park. Also i like bal harbour beach, more nearby. Sometimes waves come to the spot, is one of the only spots in miami that sometimes we have waves. I love surfing.
I would also take my friends to the ocean drive, the classic street of lots of movies. You really feel in miami.
I would like to go watch a NBA game at the miami heat stadium, also is not that expensive so its a good way to invite someone to a plan without them paying anything haha

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My family, specially my mother. She never doubt of me. i remember the day i told her i was dropping off the university to do full time what i loved and achieve my goals. She didnt doubt of me.
So, thanks mum. Im blessed of having her.
