I got into glass in 2017, in a small local shop. Any idea of glass cutting being rocket science disappeared pretty fast. A pencil-sized glass cutter, dust, heavy sheets, noise, and jokes.
From there I moved on to installations, and later into the office, working with clients.
About a year later I co-founded WiseGlassNY with two guys from the same shop.
With nothing besides ambition, awful coffee, and a 2004 Honda Odyssey.
We built it from scratch into a seven-figure operation. More worked than anyone expected back in that shop.
I spent a lot of time trying to meet in the middle. Over time, that middle stopped feeling like the right place to be. I’m better when I steer the whole thing. That’s when vision, logic, and execution actually line up.
So now I run a smaller setup.
That way I can stand behind every part of it.
