ABOUT US

Bryan and Christopher “Campy” first met and worked together in 2006.  They immediately identified with each other due to a strong work ethic, ambition & elevated standards that set them apart from their peers. They both honored tradition and saw the value & necessity of earning input and respect from their elders.  Even in their 20’s while deep in the work hard, party hard mindset they shared a similar give a shit energy that garnered respect & trust.  They knew that, if honed correctly, they would be destined for success.    

When the world fell apart in 2020, they decided it was time.  Campy walked away from a decade long job at Halliburton, moved to Texas & began immersing himself into Bryan’s entrepreneurial world. They then got to work finding opportunities, with the sole focus of building a legacy to honor their elders and pass along to future generations.    

The first business they launched in 2020 focused on Underground Utilities servicing RV Parks.  Throughout 2020-2021 they have launched, sold & invested in different businesses, verticals & real estate.  They surrounded themselves with people who had the same foundational work ethic with the focus to find opportunity during chaos.   

Be it a business or an idea, Bryan & Campy invest in reasonable people who have an innate drive to identify and capitalize on opportunities during crisis. It all needs to line up and have 100% buy in or they won’t waste your time.
