Built Through Experience. Focused on the Future of Football.

Football has been a constant throughout our lives, as players, as parents, and now as investors.

My wife and I both played college soccer, and the lessons from the game: discipline, accountability, and long-term development; have carried into everything we’ve built since. Those early experiences shaped how we approach leadership, competition, and growth.

Professionally, we spent over a decade building and scaling a manufacturing business, Universal Screens, which ultimately led to a successful acquisition by Hunter Douglas. That chapter provided the opportunity to step back and focus on where we could apply our time, capital, and experience next.

As a family, our connection to the game has been shaped largely through our son’s journey as a player, competing at a high level and navigating the pathway from youth development into more advanced environments. Our daughters, while not players themselves, experienced the game from a different perspective. Traveling the world, supporting, and being part of the broader ecosystem around it.

That exposure has provided a well-rounded view of the football landscape, from the demands placed on players to the role of families, communities, and infrastructure in supporting long-term development.

In 2025, we became part of the ownership group for McKinney Chupacabras, a USL2 club that quickly established a strong community presence. Our oldest daughter was directly involved with the club, leading game day activations and contributing to the matchday experience. Our youngest daughter had the opportunity to perform the National Anthem in front a stadium crowd of over 3,600 fans. And our son was a member of the team in its inaugural season.

Together, those experiences provided a well-rounded understanding of the football ecosystem, from player development and performance to operations, community engagement, and the matchday environment. This experience has reinforced our belief that football in the United States is still in its early stages, and that there is significant opportunity to build meaningful, lasting infrastructure around the sport.

Today, through Pitchside Holdings, we invest in clubs, player development platforms, and football-related businesses that align with a long-term vision for the game.
