MATARIANO Born in a poverty-stricken Ghetto, expected to be another victim of hood politics, ‘Mata,’(Friend) found an escape in Italian mob movies as he saw inspirational stories of how to come from nothing to something. His fast mind learned quickly that he had to listen & learn how to navigate the streets in order to survive. Then at the right time, make his major move & thrive. A smooth operator, he gained notoriety for how cool & calmly he approached all situations. His clear approach to any conflict puts him in a position of being looked at as the adjudicator & voice of reason. His way of life is governed by these 10 principles. Loyalty, Honour, Respect, Family, Faith, Love, Discipline, Intuition, Decisiveness & Adaptation. He is Street Smart with a Corporate Mind-set which propels him way further than his peers as he is able to seamlessly navigate through different spaces and automatically stand out as an Alpha in all his circles. But not a typical Alpha who leads by muscle. An Alpha who leads with Wisdom. The true definition of a ‘Wise Guy.’ What really graduated his childhood name, ‘Mata’ to ‘MATARIANO’ is his sense of Style. His love for Football & Italian fashion sense inspired his admirers to gift him that name. He has a decadent appetite for Luxury and Style as inspired by the films he grew up watching. A slick and chic character who’s draped in Silk garments. He walks the walk and talks the talk. Ladies love him & the Fellas want to be him.
