This week we decided to interview Jak Ohara a.k.a. NERD..is the owner/ceo whatever the hell you want to call him of his clothing brand Million Dollar Nerd. With all that he has been doing, all the moves, and products he's come up with showed us (T.A.'s Up and Coming Team) that he truly is the next Up and Coming fashion designer..
At 17 yrs old this dude is doing his thing, and deserves Fashion Designer of the Week. Be easy, peace.

My first pair of kicks where a sweet pair with red light in the bottom that flashed when you walked...
audiOnaut.
HAHAH i think we all thought we were the coolest kid on the block with those joints!..So about Million Dollar Nerd...what sparked your interest to do this?
NERD.
Original i wanted to start an online shop but my aspiration grew and i just thought how dope it would be to have people wanting to buy and wear my clothes.. So i started to design after i came up with a name and i found a logo that i thought really worked so i kept picking bits out and re working it and here i am...
audiOnaut.
So whats the whole idea (concept) behind the name Million Dollar Nerd?
NERD.
Million Dollar Nerd is what everyone wants to be in my eye's. Everyone has little ideas and concepts that they think will one day bring them some $$$. They may not ever get that idea out but its always with them. Also Nerd's are becoming quickly more popular and the concept of being a Nerd is becomming to appear 'CooL'. Im just picking up on this and putting it to the test
audiOnaut.
From what i've seen your ideas and concepts for the clothing have been dope..incorporating what everyone loves (MONEY) into the nerd frames. I'm sure people can vibe and digg on what your doing with this. So what are your short term goals for the clothing line?
NERD.
Short term im just working closely with my Web designer to get something made that i think reflects our theme and our beliefs and at the moment just running through the printing process...
audiOnaut.
Long term?
NERD.
World Domination...
audiOnaut.
HAHAHA!
NERD.
haha!
audiOnaut.
How big do you plan on getting with MDN?
NERD.
I can't see myself going all the way.. All i want is for people to be happy to wear my clothes... To have someone walk around in something that ive made and that ive designed would just make me speechless..and just wanna make a lil bit of profit of course
audiOnaut.
Oh no doubt. So your not really seeing any clothing dealers distributing your products?
NERD.
