Hi, I’m Jim — an engineer, project manager, proud American, husband, father, and writer with a deep passion for craftsmanship, faith, and the enduring strength of American values.
I’ve spent my career helping bring innovative new products to life in the electronics industry, where I serve as a Project Manager for one of the world’s largest manufacturers. I take pride in enabling the success of others, giving my team the tools and support they need to thrive—without micromanaging. For me, leadership means empowering people, not controlling them.
But my real passion lies outside the office—with my family, my faith, and my country. I’m a Christian, a dedicated husband, and a proud father to two wonderful daughters. I strive to create a home full of love, stability, and purpose—where my girls can grow up safe, strong, and supported.
This website is a labor of love. It’s my way of giving back and helping others discover companies that manufacture right here in the USA. In a time when it’s hard to tell where things are made or what values brands stand for, I want to shine a light on the businesses that are doing it right—American-owned, American-made, and committed to quality, tradition, and service.
As someone who supports our military, law enforcement, first responders, and the core values that built this country, I believe it matters where and how we spend our money. Every purchase is a vote—and I choose to vote for the American worker.
When I’m not writing, you can find me spending time with my close-knit family, playing poker, reading about space exploration, or cheering on the Dallas Cowboys—a tradition I’ve shared with my dad for years. I also love science fiction (especially Halo) and have an unshakable curiosity about artificial intelligence and the future of human innovation.
I started this blog not just as a side project, but as a mission: to help fellow Americans discover brands they can trust—and to support a way of life worth preserving.
Thanks for stopping by. Let’s build something great together.
