Tokyo has always had the uncanny ability to inspire greatness from those around him. The few that know him personally will forever highlight his charismatic nature. It is this charisma, alongside his unwavering focus that has fueled his success in a bevy of ventures. At only 22 he has already accomplished more than most dare to dream. Most notably is his growth as an artist, although young but my no means tender to the game, he has just launched his third studio album. Its understood by his peers that when the mic is in his hands, you sit up and pay attention. In addition to his versality on the beat, he also excels in business, a visionary, he started building the trio brand in highschool. To date, the brand is already known from the east to the west coast and is still gaining notoriety. And while his accolades accompanied by stardom, continue to multiply, his humility has never faded. He still makes it a point to connect with his community, giving back, and uplifting his people in anyway he can. Already an icon for the culture it's scary to think this is only the beginning. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcde9a7f16e5f16f948203d/1616204867366-OPEG1618EZMM5O96ZV5M/public.jpeg Blog - PLUG’Din - ANTAUN ANDREWS As we navigate life’s various journeys we are, at times, unknowingly forming the backstories of our success. However, as we only exist in the present, “the moment” can have an uncanny way of appearing greater than the sum of our total experiences. It is only when we learn to embrace those moments and their many facets that we realize our full potential. Antaun Andrews, grew up in the medium sized city of North Augusta, South Carolina. His parents and close relatives notably his uncle identified his potential for athletics at a young age. At that time no one knew where his talents would take him but they all could agree on one thing that Antaun, Taun for short, would soon outgrow the borders of Carolina. A multi-sport athlete in high school, Taun exceled in Track and Field, Football, and Basketball. By the time his highschool career was over the recruits were flooding in, he ultimately choose the University of Memphis. For four years Taun was a student - athlete earning success and notability both on and off the field. It was also during this time that Taun lost one of his biggest supporters, motivators, and male leaders in his Uncle. When asked how he was able to muster the strength to persevere, he credits the inspiration of his Grandmother saying it was her that held his head up and reinvigorated his passion for the sport that he had already given so much. Fast forward to December 2018 with his Collegiate track and field career complete, Taun graduated with his Bachelors Degree in Civil Engineering. And with this accomplishment in hand it was soon on to the next endeavor. Summer 2019 the “Summer of Opportunity”, Taun’s collegiate efforts on the field had secured him multiple invites to train with Team USA. It was also during this period were Antaun would be offered an exclusive opportunity to work for a chain of resorts/casinos on the historic Las Vegas Strip. Needless to say he took the opportunity and got right back to business. Charged with learning resort management and business operations he fully emerced himself in his new industry. And once again his work ethic, discipline, perseverance, and ability to inspire is paying off. Currently Antaun, better known now as Mr. Andrews, is serving as an Executive Host of The D, Golden Gate, and Circa. Circa, the first of its kind state of the art facility, is an homage to the historic hospitality and glamour scene of Downtown Las Vegas. It seems only fitting that a man whose spent his life making the most out of opportunity and conquering the moment, holds the moniker of Executive Casino Host for such a prestigious organization. So, Mr. Andrews continue to embrace the moment, live with out measure, and go even farther than dreams can reach. We support you in this moment and the next. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcde9a7f16e5f16f948203d/1609185129974-6CD3XVT85JSBUL2ONHWK/IMG_1006.jpg Blog - PLUG’Din - Davon DeMoss Former Division 1 ACC -All-American Track and Field star, DeMoss is no stranger to success.

Kristin Martinez, event manager, Fast Forward Events, San Diego "That we see more suppliers and producers create more creative ways to partner, whether it's in pricing structures, labor structures, or even with contract terms and clauses. We are all experiencing challenges that impact each other's businesses in significant ways, and having a partner on the other side of the contract means that risk and negative impacts can be mitigated. This requires trust, openness and willingness to change, and copious amounts of grace as we all navigate recovery. I really think that some creative problem-solving and breaking out of the ‘that's how it's always been’ will change the landscape of what is possible and how we do it." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcde9a7f16e5f16f948203d/82aa6cec-f429-4a10-a89d-f8920f20a92d/lil+boy+painting.jpg Where it Started Mike Kerr Memphis Photography https://info.plugd.net/the-team daily 0.75 2025-12-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcde9a7f16e5f16f948203d/05382ce7-65c5-43e9-bd36-a5834f1e6c87/IMG_2880.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcde9a7f16e5f16f948203d/1608260933985-70TD2ITJ1IMBUVX16X09/headshot+of+a+smiling+man https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcde9a7f16e5f16f948203d/1608260991370-LNAOCCL0IY4MEJJ8C622/0M9A2850.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcde9a7f16e5f16f948203d/1608261092920-KVMOP9TGKTBW865A5737/Noah+Stewart+headshot.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcde9a7f16e5f16f948203d/1608261044680-P2NKPIM1JMPZ3AEVN3CW/0M9A2833.jpg https://info.plugd.net/services daily 0.75 2025-05-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcde9a7f16e5f16f948203d/1740464254472-T6JE6AENB436AMVFVUH2/unsplash-image-BFdSCxmqvYc.jpg Services - Next-Level Pickups & Deliveries (Without the Hassle) We take the stress out of order fulfillment so you can focus on running your business.
