Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Well I am a 13x Award Winning Music Producer and Composer I been nominated for a Grammy 7xs I been a music producer and composer for 21 years now and I am also a 4x Award Winning Autism Activist and I been a autism activist for almost 4 years now I play 8 different instruments and I make 18 different genres of music I am the ceo of MDE/Sony orchard that is a gospel entertainment company that is in Tucson Az but we have international artists as well I am a celebrity interviewer and I own my own clothing line called: The A collection and I co own my own shoe line that is called: The A3 Apparel and I am a professional DJ, I am most proud speaking at 5 different state capitals about autism and how better medical coverage can help more autism families and how I told my testimony with having autism well I struggled for years with trying to get my name out there and my face and brand and have people believe in what I am doing and stand for but I started with being a autism activist 4 years ago and my PR at the time Manisha Holiday from the holiday firm told me that I need to tell my story and that it could touch so many people and help change the way they see Autism so we got my bio and press release together and did slot of foot work and 4 years later we are here well was their challenges yes it was and still is now but through God and prayer I am able to face any hardship that comes my way my brand sometimes moves slow but as long as I am on the road to success I know my day will come some lessons I learned are never rush into anything always pray about everything and trust yourself and your judgment always listen to wisdom and take other people’s advice try out things first before you pro-sue it and never sign anything on the first meeting well I want the world to know that my name is Marcus Leonardo Boyd I was born with autism and was non verbal until I was almost 14 years old I spoke at a 2 year old level up until I was almost 18 years old I have been in 16 to 17 different foster homes 16 to 17 different group homes and 16 to 17 Mental institutions 4 Inpatient centers and I have been homeless for 3 years I ate out of dumpers and I smelted in piss I was abused physically emotionally and sexually for years of my life but that is just a piece of my story so much more I have been through but I praise God for it all because I wouldn’t be the man I am today without the trails and tribulations

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Well for the Tucson AZ area we would go to Dave n busters and play so many different games and virtual reality games and laser tag and then I would take my friend to fun-sticks we would play more video games win prizes and get on the go carts and race and then it’s off to Golden Corral for all you can eat buffet then we would go to Burlington’s to go shopping and then we would go to the music studio in Phoenix to lay down some songs and then we would go to the cardinals stadium to watch some games and yell to the top of our lungs lol
