Obsessed with the Details
His passion for making precision parts started in his uncle’s machine shop, where he spent time as a kid and got his first real exposure to machining. After college, he took a typical office job in Massachusetts, and moved into an in-law apartment at his aunt and uncles who still owned the machine shop. After a short time being there and learning more about machining from his uncle—he got pulled back in. The level of detail and the possibilities of what you could make seemed endless. A few months later, he called an audible and quit his job to learn the trade hands-on.
The shop produced high-tolerance components across industries, from aerospace and medical to optical housings. That environment shaped his standards: accuracy, repeatability, and craftsmanship in every detail.
Golf has been part of his life since he was 15. He started working at his local golf course raking bunkers, filling divots, and eventually mowing greens—and returned every summer through high school and college. Being around the game that closely reinforced how much small details matter.
Eventually, those two worlds collided. He made a putter for himself, then one for his brother, then a few for friends. What began as a personal project grew naturally, until he was eventually selling his putters to players around the world—guided by a simple focus: make the highest quality putters possible.
It wasn’t the plan — but it turned out to be exactly where he was meant to be.
“I knew my uncle started from nothing, so I’d say that gave me the confidence to take the leap.”
