UA Brands CEO and leadership

As an early adopter of the personal computer, I built my first program on my Apple II E at the age of 10. At age 16 I began learning how to build websites, and at age 17 I created Waxpack.com. Ahead of it's time, Waxpack.com provided collectors a way of buying, selling, trading and networking with fellow sportscard enthusiasts. Although the website had tremendous traffic and fan-fare, I chose to close down the website at the age of 22 when I took a position with G.Neil Companies. Excelling as a Jr. Programmer with G.Neil, I quickly became the lead developer of their internet presence for both their parent company and their eCommerce B2B websites. Shortly after I turned 26, G.Neil was sold to Taylor Corporation and I left the company and took the position of IT Manager with Uniform Advantage. Since coming to Uniform Advantage I have helped us become one of the largest online medical apparel companies on the internet, providing vision, direction, and technological know-how. Currently I hold the positions of Chief Information Officer and Chief Technology Officer for Uniform Advantage and oversee the eCommerce programming and network architecture for the company's corporate office, fulfillment center and 28 US based and International retail locations.
