early on in, in, in young, young life, I thought I was going to try to do something with, with artistic ability and, and, um, always fine arts, um, whether it been drawing or painting, but the most unrealistic shit that you could imagine. I mean, you know, nothing that had any, uh, any ties to reality. I just thought, uh, I've always been heart strong in, in my, um, in my motivations in life.

And, and so I just always thought, you know, I can overcome people's reality gut checks, you know, that I'm getting all the time about, uh, about this is never good. You know, what are you going to do with that? That's great. You're, you're good at this, but how are you going to make a living with that? Um, so, uh, yeah, night force optics.

Uh, I got to the point in 2017, like when I started with them, it was really small family oriented company. It's still a, a very, uh, I would say still on the scale that they're at, it's still probably a family oriented style company, but the relativeness of that term changed throughout the growth. And when I, when I left there in 2017, it was really kind of like a,

sort of a survival move for my creativity. I had a lot of fantastic opportunities through the company and so much growth, but it was also becoming more of a cubicle and computer-focused day compared to such a well-rounded day with people filling multiple roles within the company.

So anyway, as weak as this might sound, I could feel it plaguing me, the direction the company was going and sort of where my ceiling had landed me, which was much higher than I thought that I would ever rise to, but also I wasn't able to contribute to the creative direction of the company. The creative bug was something I was always wanting to and needing to fulfill within my own...

yeah, just within my own happiness. So, uh, in 2017, uh, this is going to sound crazy, but I had, I had this, I had this passion for, I have always had a passion for old, old vehicles, old, just classic Americana in, in all senses of that term. And in 2017, uh, I was really looking for like, okay, what can I branch out?

If I do quit this job, what can I do on my own by myself or start in that manner and begin to make a business out of this? I've always been into sort of small space living, tiny homes. And at that time, a little bit of the, like we grew up camping my whole life as a recreation in my family. But vintage Airstream travel trailers. Those things are badass.
