Born at LaGuardia Hospital in Queens, New York, JP has always had passion for the arts, music, film, technology and iconography. Inspired by DJ's, artists, musicians, actors, comedians and art. His professional career began at HBO, but then quickly graduated to Sony Music, where he coordinated Ron Grant’s R&B Showcase for record executives at in-house boutique labels like Epic, Columbia, 550 Music & the WORK Group. From there, JP established Audiology Recording Studio with a partner & some clients were Ice T, Treach, Lil Kim, Sticky Fingaz, Fat Joe, Phife Dog along with Select Records, Elektra Records, Atlantic Records, Jive/Zomba Publishing, Def Jam Recordings, Violator Management & Bad Boy Entertainment. Always ahead of the curve, JP invested seed capital to start 'Silverback Digital Studios', a successful HD Video Editorial Production Company in partnership with Benny Boom's Gorilla Flix Production company under HSI Productions. Silverback Digital Studios credits include Def Jam's Anniversary DVD for the movie Scarface. Additionally, JP helped a little known music industry start up named 'Digiwaxx Media LLC'. Before the inception of Digiwaxx Media, JP incubated one of it's founders with affordable housing. Even further still, he worked with the founders in that same apartment that served as Digiwaxx's first office. Furthermore the first internal database that 'Digiwaxx' ever used to collect DJ feedback & report it to music labels like Elektra was created & designed by JP & CL using very early versions of Filemaker Pro. A brief stint selling sub-prime mortgages & then becoming a licensed Series 7 Stock Broker in July 2008 right before the major financial crisis in 2008, put him back at the starting line yet again. Then to avoid any responsibility JP started DJ'ing at local bars in Harlem, NY. During his time as a DJ, JP also worked with Bank Associates Merchant Services in Brooklyn while establishing new strategic corporate partnerships. As a Business Relationship Manager for Heartland Payment Systems, JP acquired a long term stay Hotel called Furnished Quarters that generates over $12mm in sales annually. Can you imagine that Heartland let JP go for non-production after scoring this deal for them? Good for JP, bad for Heartland. That's when JP started Merchant Advisory Services. Back in 2016. You might find you find JP skateboarding in a skatepark or DJ'ing at some dive bar when he's not building Merchant Advisory Services Inc. JP has a long history of projects he's has worked on. Just to ask him to tell you a story one day. :-)

As a payments consulting professional, I specialize in improving your entire payments process resulting in improved cash flow, lower costs and better processes for your company while providing a better checkout experience for your valued customers and clients. Credit card companies reward consumers with wonderful perks to get free travel, meals and rebates - but who gets stuck with the bill for those perks we all love to receive? Traditionally - businesses do. Many business owners have already realized it doesn't have to be this way and have implemented new programs to make things more fair for everyone so that those benefitting from the perks cover the payment processing cost instead of having non-card customers subsidize programs they don't benefit from in any way. Think of when you go to the gas station: card or cash are accepted options we all have embraced because it makes sense. Card costs more because of costs the gas station incurs by accepting it so the consumer is given a choice - pay a little more for the rewards and convenience of paying with a card at the pump OR walk inside, pay with cash and get a lower price. Another example - have you gone in to AAA to renew your automotive club membership or registration and saw AAA charges a fee to pay with a credit card now? This is the way of the future for many businesses that realize more customers are paying with credit card to earn those perks or perhaps due to having to put more of their basic living expenses on a credit card. Merchants are deciding they can't or don't want to continue to absorb these high monthly fees and want options. If this is resonating with you, let's chat (no obligation) and discuss your payments environment. As a part of our conversation we can discuss cost reduction strategies (you can continue to absorb the merchant fees, too if you wish via another variety of option not discussed here), software, hardware and technology integrations for your specific environment, etc. I work with businesses of all types - B2B, B2C and ISVs, of all sizes, in any location. I bring my extensive business consulting background to what I do to each day and will help you roll out the best payments strategy for your business. I am known for my commitment to providing excellent support and service to my customers and would love to be of service to you. Here's my calendar if you'd like to find a convenient time to talk https://calendly.com/leslie-ocpaymentspro

I have been an award-winning, top sales producer specializing in B2B business year-over-year. I want to work with the best financial technology company to streamline the backend process for businesses. I have hired and built successful top-producing teams throughout the United States and enjoy watching salespeople grow in confidence and experience. My teams are held to standards that consistently amaze leadership and I maintain lofty standards through developing skills that make sales teams confident and outshine in production. This is achieved through training and being there to champion for and cheer on individuals that make up the team. After all, where each is great, the whole is great. Likewise, I apply high standards in my personal life and have achieved goals through doing so such as becoming a pilot. One of my passions is aviation, and I achieved the goal of becoming a pilot over ten years ago. This one-time dream was acquired through dedication and hard work. This passion is now shared with my wife who has also become a pilot. Likewise, I enjoy mentoring and sharing the love of aviation with people that want to learn to fly airplanes. 1 DASH is a new financial technology company that got its start in 2022.
