Meet Druski Media

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

What should our readers know about your business?
**Q: Please tell us more about your business. We’d love to hear what sets you apart from others, what you are most proud of or excited about.**

Druski Media is more than just a media company – it’s a platform for storytelling and connection. Based in Las Vegas, we specialize in helping business owners, musicians, and talented individuals share their unique stories with the world. What sets us apart is our approach to building brands from the ground up. We don’t just create visuals, graphics, or packaging – we craft an entire aesthetic and identity for our clients, helping them scale and achieve greatness.

What excites me most is the impact we’re making on the Las Vegas community. I’m proud to be a part of this city’s growth and to give people a voice. Whether it’s a small business or a rising musician, I love helping others realize their potential and showcase their worth. Seeing the success of my clients is truly the most rewarding part of what I do.

**Q: How did you get to where you are today business-wise? Was it easy? If not, how did you overcome the challenges?**

Getting to where I am today has been anything but easy. After the pandemic, I experienced profound personal and professional challenges. My mentor, who played a huge role in shaping my career, passed away, and the work we had built together seemed to fall apart. I was overwhelmed, uninspired, and even considered giving up on my creative pursuits entirely. I retired my camera and planned to get a traditional job, but during that time, I was flooded with calls from people asking why I was stepping away. The truth was, I was struggling with depression and had lost my passion.

For the next few years, I focused on myself. I started spending hours at the gym, working on my physical and mental health. The gym became my outlet, a space where I could process everything. It was during this time of rebuilding that I received a phone call that changed everything. The Las Vegas community needed someone to help tell their stories, and I realized I could be that person. That call reignited my passion, and Druski Media was reborn with a fresh purpose and direction.

The challenges I faced taught me the importance of resilience, self-worth, and staying true to my vision. I’ve learned that setbacks don’t define you – they shape you. And most importantly, I’ve learned to only work with people who value what you bring to the table. Always go where you’re celebrated, not tolerated.

**Q: What are the lessons you’ve learned along the way?**

The journey has taught me countless lessons, but a few stand out. First, know your worth and never compromise it to please others. There will always be people who try to take advantage of your talents, but it’s crucial to work only with those who respect and appreciate your value.

Second, resilience is key. Life will throw challenges your way, but those moments of adversity often lead to the greatest growth. I’ve learned to embrace the hard times because they make the victories even sweeter.

Lastly, community matters. Surround yourself with people who support, uplift, and inspire you. In both business and life, finding the right people can make all the difference.

**Q: What do you want the world to know about you or your brand and story?**

At its core, Druski Media is about connection, creativity, and community. We’re not just here to create content – we’re here to tell stories that matter, elevate brands, and give people a platform to shine. My vision is to make Druski Media the leading media outlet in Las Vegas within the next five years. I want the world to know that we’re here to celebrate talent, amplify voices, and empower dreamers to achieve their goals.

My story is one of perseverance. I’ve been at rock bottom, unsure of my next step, but I found my way through passion and purpose. I want people to know that no matter how hard things get, there’s always a way forward. Druski Media is proof that with hard work, resilience, and a commitment to your vision, you can turn any setback into a breakthrough.

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?
If you’re coming to hang out with me for a week, buckle up because we’ve got places to hit and food to devour! First stop: Al’s Anytime, run by the culinary wizard Chef Lucy. This spot serves Onigiri so good it’ll make you question every other rice ball you’ve ever eaten. And her special menus? Let’s just say they’re so wild they could probably get their own Netflix series.

Next, we’re heading to Evel Pie in Downtown Las Vegas. This isn’t just pizza; this is BBQ pizza that tastes like it was kissed by the grill gods themselves. Then there’s Stew’s Stix, a food truck in the Arts District that serves grilled shrimp lollipops. Yes, shrimp on sticks—because why not? They’re so good you might cry a little… and that’s okay. We don’t judge here.

Of course, no week is complete without hitting up one of the city’s Korean BBQ spots. They’re all amazing, affordable, and come with enough side dishes to make you wonder if they’re secretly trying to feed you for the rest of the year. Plus, I’d call up my homies Chef Chatt and Chef Eboni to join us. These two are culinary geniuses, and their dishes are so incredible they’ll make you want to write them a thank-you card.

For dessert, we’re heading to Craft Creamery in Downtown Las Vegas. This isn’t your average ice cream parlor—it’s boozy ice cream heaven. You can infuse your dessert with alcohol, which is basically like adulting but way more fun. Oh, and there’s a secret lounge inside. Yes, a secret lounge. It’s like dessert meets a spy movie. Or, if you’re feeling less James Bond and more chill, their patio is perfect for lounging and pretending you’re fancier than you actually are.

Now, shopping. We’re hitting the Strip, the Fashion Show Mall, and the outlet malls. Personally, I’m making a beeline for the Coach outlet because who cares if it’s last season? It’s still stylish, and the prices won’t make your wallet cry. Fashion is what you make it, and I make it cheap and fabulous.

Finally, let’s talk meals at home. You’re getting breakfast and dinner cooked by yours truly. I was taught by the best, and I’m not saying I’m a kitchen rockstar, but I might drop a spatula after plating just for dramatic effect. So, bring your appetite and stretchy pants—you’re gonna need them!
