Sales & Marketing

I first jumped into the family business during high school, helping out with everything from washing and engraving parts to packaging and shipping orders. As the owner's son, I got an early look at what makes Spex tick.

At 18, I joined the Marine Corps as an armorer, maintaining and repairing small weapons systems. I completed my four years of service in 2017.

I returned to Spex in 2022 and now focus on our website, sales, and marketing efforts. My background combines hands-on manufacturing experience with military discipline—giving me a unique perspective on how to connect our precision machining capabilities with the challenges our customers face every day.

My time in the Marines taught me the critical importance of precision, attention to detail, and following exact specifications—values that perfectly align with our work at Spex. Whether I'm helping a buyer source a complex component or creating educational content about different materials and machining processes, I bring the same level of commitment and problem-solving approach I developed in the service.

When I'm not at Spex, you might find me at the gym or detailing cars. Having seen both sides of the operation—from the shop floor to customer communications—I understand what matters most to the people who depend on our precision machining expertise.
