He began his career at Steiner Sports, the country’s premier sports marketing firm, eventually rising to Director of Corporate Marketing and Business Development. Phil went on to create PR/PR (Player Relations/Public Relations), a brand management company for professional athletes and high-profile personalities. PR/PR clients included some of the top athletes in the world, ranging from Super Bowl and World Series champions, to skateboarders and supermodels. Comprising corporate appearances, endorsement deals, the procurement of luxury brand sponsorships, philanthropic outreach, crisis management and more, Phil managed his clients’ careers as he would those of his own family. STRAPPED POETS is the culmination of that collective experience.

A true enemy of the status quo, Netic can best be summed up with the Albert Camus quote, “The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free, that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” header_style=”” parallax_content_width=”in_grid” anchor=”” in_content_menu=”” content_menu_title=”” content_menu_icon=”” angled_section=”no” angled_section_position=”both” angled_section_direction=”from_left_to_right” text_align=”left” video=”” video_overlay=”” video_overlay_image=”” video_webm=”” video_mp4=”” video_ogv=”” video_image=”” background_image=”” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” section_height=”” parallax_speed=”” background_color=”” border_color=”” row_negative_margin=”” side_padding=”” parallax_side_padding=”” padding_top=”” padding_bottom=”” color=”” hover_color=”” more_button_label=”” less_button_label=”” button_position=”” css_animation=”” transition_delay=”” el_id=””][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]993ab2_f4239c12396541f582d728def1be7114.jpg_srz_p_737_492_75_22_0.50_1.20_0.00_jpg_srzSTRAPPED POETS is fueled by creative expression. Even the logo is a work of art. Custom designed by artist Gregory Siff, whose work has been prominently featured in exhibitions for The Museum of Modern Art and The Whitney Museum of American Art. Siff’s distinct emotionalism style is known for merging unique elements of abstraction, pop, and action painting. His technique coalesces the voice of a fearless child with the wisdom of a seasoned warrior; making him one of the most prolific and exciting forces in the contemporary art scene.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”32px” background_image=”” image_repeat=”no-repeat”][vc_empty_space height=”32px” background_image=”” image_repeat=”no-repeat”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
