FUELLED by creativity

FOUNDED BY vladimir ruzich, an actor, writer, CONTENT creator

based OUT OF vancouver.

You might know me as a basketball player, or perhaps you’ve seen me sharing the screen with Jim Carrey in Sonic 2. Yes, I played a bad guy, but in real life, I am anything but. I’m also a screenwriter, and a music producer recording under the name MAK5TRA. Find me on Apple Music or Spotify. 

My career has been defined by movement, running plays on the court, creating worlds in screenplays, and capturing rhythm in the studio. But the greatest adventure of my life doesn’t happen in front of a camera or inside a stadium. It happens out here.

I believe in the philosophy that we all have two lives, and the second one begins when we realize we only have one. There is no time to waste. Coming from humble beginnings as the son of immigrant parents, and navigating personal loss, I learned early on that life is too short for "What Ifs."

I built this space to fight the "villains" of the modern world: the sedentary lifestyle, the glowing screens, and the grey cubicles. My mission is to spark a fire in you to take a chance on the unknown.

Whether I’m exploring a new peak or teaching my two children a new sport, my motto remains the same: “Never Give Up, Never Surrender”.

Let’s get outside. The world is waiting.
