Visual Artist

Nessy

From NFTs to Murals throughout the city. I've loved watching Nessy's art work shine on a global stage & show her community & culture to the world.

Hidden Gem

The Pizza here is ridiculous. I've had a lot of Pizza in my life but there's few places in the world that live up to the crust and toppings of a Jacob's Lounge slice.

Barber

I'm on the road speaking at events all the time and meeting with clients around the world. My barber and homie Peedi at Legends in Cole Harbour always keeps me fresh and clean.

Brewery

Good Robot
These guys are like the Willy Wonka of Beer in this city. Great food. Great people. Great vibes and always unique / interesting things happening at their locations. Not to mention their food is just as good as their beer.

Sports Team

Halifax Thunderbirds

I don't think there's a better sports vibe in Halifax right now than a Thunderbirds Game. The music is wild, the games are top notch and the crowd brings a level of energy that is second to none.
