David Garibaldi is a nationally renown performance artist based out of Sacramento, CA. Building on his artistic influences such as Denny Dent, David has brought his art to some of the most prominent venues in the world, include America’s Got Talent, where he made it to the finals. He is also one of only a handful of artists to be commissioned to paint the caricatures of the Disney Corporation. We talk about David’s journey from getting his car repossessed to his rise to fame - and being confronted for coming off as arrogant in his Lamborghini. We talk about how everyone must set their own goals and carve out a path that is right for them, and we talk about giving back.
