CEO at 76 FENCE and Scout & Molly’s

With a foundation rooted in martial arts, I've spent my life mastering the disciplines of focus, resilience, and strategic thinking. Earning the title of Grandmaster and achieving multiple high-ranking black belts in Tang Soo Do, Hapkido, and Taekwondo, along with being a certified Krav Maga instructor, I have translated these values into my business career. The principles learned on the mat – commitment, leadership, and the relentless pursuit of excellence – have shaped my approach to entrepreneurship.

Today, my primary focus is leading two dynamic and fast-evolving brands: 76 FENCE and Scout & Molly's. At 76 FENCE, we're redefining the fencing industry by prioritizing quality, American-made materials and delivering a premium, 'White Glove' customer service experience. Scout & Molly's, our upscale women's boutique franchise, brings personalized fashion and empowering entrepreneurship to local communities across the country. These brands are more than just businesses; they represent my dedication to innovation, quality, and the success of our franchise partners.

My entrepreneurial journey spans over two decades in the franchise space, where I've been instrumental in launching and scaling multiple successful brands. I'm the CEO of Franchiseyourbusiness.com, where I provide strategic guidance and support to aspiring franchisors and franchisees, helping them navigate the complexities of the franchise world and achieve sustainable growth.

Certified as a franchise advisor and developer, my focus remains on driving the growth and success of 76 FENCE and Scout & Molly's. By integrating proven strategies with a hands-on approach, I aim to cultivate thriving business communities and empower other entrepreneurs to turn their visions into thriving realities.

My mission extends beyond building successful companies; it’s about creating opportunities for others to achieve their dreams, inspiring growth, and shaping the future of franchise entrepreneurship.
