Tell us about yourself
When I was in college, I experienced my first off-shore fishing experience, and it was life-changing for me. The feeling of being offshore is like nothing else, and now being able to share this feeling with my two boys is incredibly rewarding. I have also always had a natural inclination toward helping this other, and this company has been a great way to bring the two together.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I would say my biggest accomplishment as a business owner is to create something that I am truly passionate about while providing for my own family and helping those in need.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
As a dreamer (which I believe most business owners are), it has been a challenge to keep the main thing the main thing.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Dream BIG!
- Identify mentors and other small business owners around you.
- Adaptability is EVERYTHING!
