Experience
Founder & CEO
Aug 2013 — Present
I have been inventing, patenting and improving sports safety products for years. Because of this, I founded Soldier Sports, which makes products originally created for military combatives, but perfected for impact sports. My inspiration for the CUSTOM 7312 mouthguard was soldiers who needed maximum protection and comfort with the ability to communicate clearly. Countless hours of research led to the development of 7312: a proprietary high-impact absorbing material that could replicate the air-tight lock of a custom fit mouthguard. This quickly caught the attention of Special Forces Green Beret, Karl Erickson, who thought we had something special on our hands. After receiving rave reviews from Karl and other soldiers, we asked: If the CUSTOM 7312 can provide the protection, comfort, breathability and speakability needed by military personnel, why not make it available to professional athletes? So I field tested the mouthguard at the highest level of sports and what I found was remarkable. Pro boxer Bud Crawford asked to try the CUSTOM 7312 and loved it. He wore it in his first title fight, where he became the Lightweight Boxing Champion of the World. Then, it caught on like wildfire. Danny Woodhead. Darren McFadden. Pierre Garcon. Lance Briggs. Patrick Bordeleau. Houston Alexander. Athletes from all disciplines were asking for the CUSTOM 7312 and loving it.
