This is the story of a child of Greek immigrants, coming of age in the 1980's in Queens, New York.
As a child, Taso worked at the diner his family had scrimped and saved to buy- washing dishes, waiting tables, and even short-order cooking by the age of twelve. As a 19-year-old he stripped off his clothes at discos in front of 1,200 people, an experience that would inspire the concept for a male strip club. He was lit. In his heart though, he was always a dishwasher at the diner (a place that would go on to provide over one million free meals to the disadvantaged).
In 2011 at the age of 46, he became a novice monk at a Monastery. This was his path.
