Occupation: CEO of Royal Beard Club

Bio: Born in New York, Started playing guitar at 12 years old and fell in love with music. Played in a few bands and produced all different types of music. Always enjoyed the art of creating. Started making beard products in 2013 and developed Royal Beard Club with a few close friends and now partners.

How did your business start? Royal Beard Club has really blossomed into something great. At first it was never meant to be such a big brand in this market place. It was just a real solution for me and my itchy dry beard . I started concocting my own all natural quality beard oil blends from home for my own benefits. Next thing you know a lot of the town barbershops and local bearded brothers were non-stop asking for more once they were handed a few samples. This is probably because I put a lot of pride in my products and I believe in quality. This is when Royal Beard Club was born.
