I grew up in Michigan in a proud “Ford” family who instilled in me a deep understanding of what American-Made means to American families. To me, American-Made means creating jobs, building long-term, mutually beneficial partnerships, turning business colleagues into friends, and being able to ensure that my company delivers high-quality products I believe in.

Necessity is the Mother of Invention

In 2008, I needed a way to keep our dogs and baby off our curved banisters and extra-wide stairs. The options on the market were neither attractive, nor 100 percent safe given the jerry-rigging that was required to attach the gate between banisters. As is the case with many products on the market today, necessity was the mother of invention. When I couldn’t find a solution, I invented my own.

After years of friends and family telling me I should start a business selling the fabric baby gate for the bottom of the stairs I designed for my own home, I took the leap of faith and left my executive recruiting practice to launch The Stair Barrier.
