WP:BLP, with significant advertorial overtones, of a music industry figure with no properly sourced indication of notability for any specific reason -- this basically amounts to "person who is automatically notable because he exists", which is not how a person gets a Wikipedia article. The sourcing is entirely to primary sources like his own web page, his own self-published social media content and the web page of a music conference he's directly involved in, with the closest thing to an independent source being a glancing mention of his existence on the website of a non-notable blogger. This is not the kind of sourcing it takes to get someone over WP:GNG. Bearcat (talk) 23:10, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * delete per nom - apart from the blatantly promotional nature of the article, WP:BEFORE for me turns up passing mentions at best, amongst all the other people of the same name - David Gerard (talk) 13:19, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete as spam for this "motivational coach". Nothing approaching an encyclopedia entry here. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:38, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
