Mike's commitment to saving lives was instilled at a young age, as he comes from a family with a long history of military and law enforcement service, where putting their lives on the line to protect and serve their country was a way of life. His grandfather, served in the Army during World War II, went on to become the Chief of Police in his hometown. Mike's father, who served in the Navy during the Vietnam War, and his brothers, who both served in the Army Special Forces, dedicated their lives to serving in government and law enforcement roles across their respective careers.

For Mike, this common thread of protecting and serving has been a driving force throughout his life, motivating him to use his skills and expertise to advance high-quality ballistic protection equipment for men and women all over the world who also serve and protect. While Mike took a different path, he spent almost 20 years advancing high-quality ballistic protection equipment for men and women worldwide.
