I grew up working in my family’s restaurants,
Thorndale Piazza Deli, Ruffini’s, and Café Gap,
where I learned the fundamentals of business
and hospitality.
In 2011, I opened my own restaurant, Pronto,
with my brother Ron.
For 25+ years, I’ve been a professional musician.
After leading Monacy for 10 years and performing
alongside Page McConnell (Phish), Karl Denson,
and The Greyboy Allstars, I released a Top 50
jazz album with Johnny DeFrancesco.
I was an early podcast pioneer, launching
my first show in 2006 — years before
podcasting was mainstream.
In 2013, I created Drummer’s Resource,
the #1 drumming podcast in the world
and a top-100 global music podcast,
amassing tens of millions of downloads.
I launched Revoice Media, a full-service
podcast production company, producing
work for leading artists, brands, and
entertainment companies, including
FaZe Clan and major branded campaigns
with Porsche, Nike, and the NFL.
I joined Good Day Film as a partner, helping expand
the company across branded content, documentaries,
live events, television, and film. Clients include CAA,
Netflix, MLB and others
Inspired by my family’s real estate background and
my love for Italian piazzas, I founded Ruffini Capital
to develop retail spaces that foster culture,
commerce, and meaningful human connection.
I launched Ruffini Sports & Entertainment to develop
new business, strategic partnerships, media, and IP
opportunities across music, entertainment and sports.
