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

Hi Michael, what do you attribute your success to?
Connecting with my customers and listening to their feedback and looking for new ideas.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I am happy to make t-shirts that make people smile. It was not easy to start my business and it takes a lot of time and attention. It is okay to ask for help and It is worth it when I see someone wearing an Urban Revel t-shirt.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
We would go to the beach, Apple Pan for burgers and fries (ask for double cooked fries- they are so good.) Then we would go to Won Kok in Chinatown for dim sum and hike Westridge Trail. I’d also take them to the Venice Beach skatepark and shopping on Fairfax for some cool streetwear.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I would like to send a shoutout to Alex Stone, he helped me start up certain parts of by business and spent time with me every week helping me out.
