Various Songs by Navarro aka Scheme

Rafael Navarro Jr., a Mexican-American first generation college graduate and Founder of Loop Theory and Beats & Bars. Navarro has been a respected artist for many years in the Chicago scene. As a self-sufficient artist he has developed a multitude of skills, which have helped him gain experience in various areas of life. With background experience in Behavioral Therapy with children in a group setting, as well as one-on-one with teens at Chicago Public Schools, in combination with my years of experience as an artist, he has created programs that he strongly believes in.

Navarro’s passion for music and working with youth were always two separate worlds. It wasn’t until one of his students came across his music online at the school he was working with at the time. This led to a group of students suggesting he start an after-school music program, which is where Beats & Bars originated. He finally found the place to have these separate worlds come together. Rafael came to realize the value there is in a skill set he taught himself as a teen.

He looks forward to the day where Beats and Bars spaces exist throughout our communities and provide the necessary resources for our teens to realize the options that exist for them. He wants nothing more than for the youth in his city to realize how valuable they are to themselves and their communities. Giving youth options and showing them that there isn’t one correct path to take. Teaching them to take responsibility, while helping them find the path that works best for them.

Rafael has refocused his purpose and is committed to developing artists to their full potential. Having experience as an artist gives him a unique perspective needed in helping new talent identify their vision and sound. Navarro’s goal with Loop Theory is to build a network of Creative’s and artists that will focus on the development of their artistry and a team, which will assist in managing the process.

As an active member of his community, a youth mentor, artist and now artist manager, Navarro believes it’s key to nurture new talent and guide them through the necessary steps to develop their artistic identity. He focuses on providing all the essential resources needed by the artists in order to support and achieve each individual's vision. Navarro envisions Loop Theory becoming a reputable artist development and management company for the next generation of creative’s. For Creators, by Creators.

Michele was born in New York City and moved to Colorado because of her Fathers business at a very young age. Her entire life has been about corporate relocations and has moved 11 times through her own career. She spent majority of her career in the Health Industry, going to Johnson & Johnson straight out of college. They were hiring women in the work force outside of administrative roles and believed athletes would be a “fit” into their culture. She was a downhill ski racer and became 1 out 6 of women to be hired by that company.

Her career took off due to her desire to be successful. The company trained her and kept her accountable throughout her time there. She evolved through her transitions as she was guided and advised by Executive Business Coaches that encouraged and reminded of her strong abilities to succeed.

Michele has always believed in herself and has made a career out of uplifting and believing in others. She strongly believes that you teach what you have been shown, through your experiences. Her career has now spanned over 4 decades of basic principles that still and will always rule the way we achieve success. Define what that means to you, make an agreement with yourself that you are worth it and never take anything personally. You are the Creator of your reality. With that said, CS introduces you to the beautiful Michele Consigli Foster.
