AL “Ayce” ElAwar. The record, year by year.

Origin

Loma Linda. San Bernardino. Redlands.

  • Loma Linda Born
  • San Bernardino Raised
  • Redlands Graduated
  • Highland Friends

Born in Loma Linda. Raised in San Bernardino. Graduated in Redlands. Friends lived in Highland. Very fortunate to have family all around him.

San Bernardino, an entrepreneurial city on Route 66, made him book-smart, street-smart. The streets made you grow up fast. Early on he saw that daily life runs through business: how value is created, held, moved.

San Bernardino did not keep him small. It expanded him into other counties — Riverside, Orange County, San Diego County, Los Angeles County. Los Angeles gave him room to explore. That reach took him as far as Nevada and Arizona.

That ground is the start of the timeline.

Health

Overcame cancer twice: stage one, stage four. Still standing. Health is wealth, and the real medicine comes from living life to the fullest: friends, family, moments and memories.

Work and intention

3D > Ai

  • finance
  • real estate
  • law

His lane: finance, real estate, law. The rules that govern expansion — especially across the internet.

Through-line: 3D over AI. Capture the space so other people can walk it. While much of the world frets about AI, the bet here is love for 3D — real rooms, real materials, real distribution. Showcase stunning material for maximum reach.

Capture the space. Shape the material. Place it where distribution is highest.

  • InsightThe eye on top · 2014 · 2016 · 2018

    A first drone. Then 3D scanning. Then a company built to show what a place is before anyone drives to it.

  • Capability → Liquidity2023 · 2024

    A captured space works on its own. People walk it from anywhere. BAMN carries the follow-up behind the work.

  • TokenizationRecords · licensing · registries

    Real estate licensing, on file with the California DRE. Domain and registry work on the open web, up to an application in ICANN’s New gTLD Program.

On the record

Said out loud.

“+10 years building 3D Sites; bridging Communities & Culture directly to the cloud.”

@AyceOfSpace

“I could TELL you about the beehive Or… Or I could SHOW you!”

“Any City you put us in… We leave with it in our pocket. Silently we build… as results vibrate.”

“If your business could talk… What would it say?”

“The call to action has to be something tangible! Take clients within SIGHT.”
