Twenty years ago, I made Atlanta my home after serving nine impactful years in the United States Marine Corps. Transitioning into civilian life, I pursued my education at Kennesaw State University, which set the stage for a successful sales career in the medical device industry. Throughout my career, I earned multiple awards across various companies. However, I always felt a deep drive to build something of my own, something lasting that could provide stability and security for my family for generations to come.

During a multiyear job that required frequent travel between Atlanta and New York City, I spent countless hours in laundromats. It was there that my fascination with clothes cleaning took root, sparking a desire to turn it into a lifelong venture. The idea of owning a dry cleaner appealed to me because it offers the chance to build lasting relationships with customers, watch their families grow, and savor the simple, yet profound, joys of life.
