BUILDING BRANDS,
DRIVING GROWTH.
Hi! I’m Gerald Pagdato
Over the last two decades, I’ve worked as an engineer, construction business owner, filmmaker, musician, and digital marketer. Today I’m building businesses, creating media, and exploring whatever catches my curiosity next.
I build businesses, tell stories, and spend most of my time learning how things work.

WHO I AM
More than one thing.
I’ve never been comfortable staying in one lane.
My career started in engineering, but curiosity eventually pulled me into entrepreneurship, filmmaking, music, marketing, and creative storytelling.
Today I split my time between building businesses, helping clients grow, creating content, producing media, and exploring new ideas.
I’m a husband, dog owner, entrepreneur, creator, and lifelong student.
Interesting things happen when you stay curious.
WHAT JOURNEY
The road so far.
I don’t see these chapters as separate lives. I see them as layers.
Each one taught me something I still use today.
ENGINEER
Engineering taught me how systems work. I spent over a decade solving complex problems, reading plans, managing risk, and building things that had to hold.
BUILDER
Construction taught me how to solve problems when plans meet real life. Starting a business taught me about risk, ownership, and what it feels like when something you built starts to work.
STORYTELLER
Media production taught me how to capture stories and turn ideas into something people can feel. Film credits: Chew on This, One Good Deed, Rising.
MARKETER
Digital marketing taught me how people make decisions, how businesses grow, and how small changes create momentum. I founded Inumin Media in 2019 and Vet Digital Growth later.
CREATOR
Music reminded me that creating something from nothing is still one of the most rewarding things a person can do. I perform with my band The Kids Are Running Wild. This chapter is still being written.

The things that matter
I’m a husband, a dog owner, a gym member trying to stay healthy, and a guy who gets excited about cameras, technology, music, and learning new things.
Work is a big part of my life, but it is not the whole story. I care about building businesses, but I also care about building a life worth remembering.
That means making space for family, creativity, health, friendships, faith, community, and the small everyday moments that often matter most.

LESSONS LEARNED
A few things I’ve learned.
Not rules. Just patterns I’ve noticed from two decades of building, failing, and starting again.
Business is about relationships.
Creativity matters more than tools.
Consistency beats intensity.
Most problems can be solved if you’re willing to learn.
Financial stress limits choices.
Technology is only useful when it saves time, creates clarity, or helps people.
Life is too short to spend all your time working.
The best opportunities usually start with a conversation.
WHAT I’M FOCUSED ON RIGHT NOW
Now.

Eventually, this will become a home for the things I create, learn, and think about along the way. Ideas. Videos. Music. Reflections. Lessons from business. Lessons from life. Projects in progress.
