Born in Belleville NJ, a great deal of my fondest childhood memories took place at my grandparent’s farm in upstate New York. From a young age, my adventures on the farm foreshadowed my future ambitions. The recreation of learning to hunt, fish, and ride motorcycles was balanced by important lessons that taught me the meaning of hard work. I did not know at the time, but these experiences would form the building blocks that constructed the man I am today. In 2012 I started my career as a Naval Aviator, the fulfillment of a lifelong desire to serve in the military. I served for over a decade; a period of my life in which I am both proud and blessed to have experienced.

After leaving the Navy, I was in search of a new meaningful endeavor. What I uncovered was Iron String. A culmination of my life, values, and experience, Iron String is more than the products we provide. Iron String is a way of life, an understanding that we provide for our own and build strength within ourselves, thus making our community stronger.
