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

Hi Mario, can you tell us about an impactful book you’ve read and why you liked it or what impact it had on you?
The compound effect. It taught me that daily effort no matter how big or small is the most important. It tells you about different routes that people using different levels of effort take. There’s the people using their free time on tv and entertainment, and there’s the people using free time on reading, exercise, working towards their goals. It got me to know I just gotta make daily effort and my work I put In will compound end exponentiate in value.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I got to where I am today by learning as much as possible. I’m always on the hunt to learn something new. Grow. Try new things. This year I bought, and I’m still buying so many new assets. 3D printer, iPad Pro, sewing machines, new phone, things that make everything quicker or create new capabilities for me. It definitely hasn’t been easy but I’m working every day to make new things and reach new people. This past year especially hasn’t been easy considering my dad passed away and the family been tryinna get it back together, we gon be straight though.

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?
When it comes to killeen, we ain’t got much but there’s some fun things to do. I’d mainly suggest going to chalk ridge falls and exploring the wilderness around here. Maybe hit up a couple clubs. But overall it’s not much to do here,

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?
Patrick bet david at valuetainment deserves a gigantic shoutout from me. He’s an entrepreneur who makes videos about business and entrepreneurship. His videos have helped me immensely this year and taught me a lot of what it takes to run a business. His videos prime me for what I’m trying to build right now (design business along with personal brand)
