Debra Jo first saw a Pet Oxygen Mask at a Pet First Aid presentation given by Denise Fleck and did not know what it was.  When she realized that pet-specific masks existed and that Fire Departments didn't carry them, well she became a woman on a mission.  Her initial goal was to make sure her own dog would be safe if fire struck her community, but others wanted their dogs safe too, so Debra Jo jumped through hoops to find out the best ways to work with first responders, started her own non-profit, The Emma Zen Foundation with her 100 lbs Black Labrador/Great Dane as the name sake.  To date she has supplied thousands of Pet O2 Mask Kits to Fire Depts in California, Colorado and around the globe. 

Prior to this, Debra Jo was an instructor at the International Institute of Permanent Cosmetics, but EZF became a full time passion.  To complement her safety awareness mission, Debra Jo is now a Pet First-Aid & CPR instructor, teaching  the Sunny-dog Ink course under her own company banner.

Quick facts: Simone Sello, Background information …

His musical upbringing is based on classical violin studies, as well as watching and hearing his father play guitar, but he never took a formal guitar lesson, in spite of his career as a guitar player. His influences include major classical and jazz composers and performers, (Bach, Ravel, Miles Davis, Weather Report), pop and rock acts (The Beatles, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Metallica, Lucio Battisti), and experimental artists (Luciano Berio, Brian Eno, Terje Rypdal, Klaus Schulze).

Equally interested in performing, composing and producing music, Simone started getting hired to play guitar for recording sessions and live performances by artists in his hometown Rome when he was 17 years old, and eventually became known on a national level. While building a long list of musical collaborations, he started writing articles for magazines, thus achieving a different kind of exposure, still in the music field.

At the age of 29, he moved to Los Angeles to push his musician and journalist careers, by joining a big international scene.
