About the Inventor - Start of FlipTowel
After West Point, I served in the Army Infantry (Airborne/Ranger) and in the Gulf War. Afterwards, I was motivated to follow my heart and focused on a variety of entrepreneurial endeavors.
The idea came to me one day after a long run, standing there holding a dirty, sweaty hand towel. I simple got tired of carrying a towel or putting it in my pocket so I could wipe off my sweat. Well, the rest is history...four years later, here is the FlipTowel. And I can't wait to show you all the other ideas we have for the FlipTowel. There is much more to come!
A Huge Thanks from the Inventor.
To my team, friends, and mentors--the students and faulty members at University of Florida and Florida Gulf Coast University, West Point peers, family members and friends that have assisted in the product development, I say Thanks to All!

Risques et défis
We need your support. Getting the word out and letting people know about the product is always a challenge.
Our manufacturing takes place overseas, which requires strategic planning when it comes to ordering. One of our goals is to have the ability to run small personalized orders. Currently, that remains a challenge for us.
In the event that things don't go as planned, whether it's a delay in the manufacturing timeline, shipping date, or something else, we promise to communicate honestly with you and work around the clock until we correct the issue.
