Meet Daniel Noboa, Serial Entrepreneur

Though many claim to be self-made, for entrepreneur Daniel Noboa, his journey quite literally embodies the ultimate definition of self-made. With a vision for a career in music promotion, Noboa came out of high school with an immovable focus solely zeroed in on his goals. Through the professional and educational groundwork of his character, Noboa strived to change order and status quo by establishing a reality for himself with alternate opportunities. He found his opportunity via music and the music industry.  

He follows the words of author Adam M. Grant, which says, “To become original, you have to try something new, which means accepting some measure of risk.” In following his passion, despite a road of risks and blaring uncertainty, Noboa found himself more satisfied than ever after realizing that he was doing exactly what he wanted. With that, his first company was born—DNA Global Events. With live experiential music events, Noboa saw his dream materialize before his eyes. 

In his journey, Noboa had a fair share of challenges. While running his business out of New York City, he decided to continue his education and enrolled at NYU Stern where he studied business management. And to add to his business endeavours as well as his academics, managing personalities and expectations of those in the music industry proved to be an even greater challenge. 

Meet Brosnan Hoban, Real Estate Mogul 

For some, the idea of success begins with getting a college education followed by working your way up the corporate ladder by way of a traditional nine to five job. For entrepreneur Brosnan C. Hoban, through his experience in pursuing this traditional career model, he discovered that growing up, he had had the perfect example of the true entrepreneurial pursuit.

Despite having attended college and going after internships as well as nine to five type desk jobs, he realized that the traditional career route was not for him. At that point, Hoban decided to take everything he could from the experience he had and expand on it by taking online classes to learn as much as possible about real estate with the intention of following in his father’s footsteps. 

Taking up internships with some of the most elite real estate groups in Pittsburgh, Hoban directed all of his efforts into gaining as much experience and knowledge about the industry so that he could apply it to his own business. Since his start in the real estate business, the young entrepreneur has managed to completely revolutionize his father’s traditional real estate business. With technological tools and improvements, Hoban was able to immensely enhance Hoban Realty with modernization by taking advantage of resources like social media, the latest photography technology and the power of growing an online-savvy clientele. 

Since the start of his career in overhauling the Hoban Realty, Brosnan has capitalized on his entrepreneurial spirit in order to ultimately maximize the functions of his family’s business for the better. With unapologetic determination to go to any length to be successful, the young entrepreneur has seen the fruits of his labor which has in turn not only brought success to his family’s business, but pride and recognition as well. 

“Depending on your passion, one might need to go the tradition route, for example, doctors and lawyers,” Hoban says. “But if one’s passion does not require them to take the traditional route then would I encourage them to take a chance and go after their dreams.”
