I was born in the great state of Texas but was raised up from my earliest memories in the hills of Kentucky. After watching the attacks on our great nation on 9-11-2001, I chose to join the United States ARMY. I proudly served our great nation as a United States Army Airborne Ranger with the prestigious <2>/75th Ranger Regiment. Serving multiple combat tours in both Iraq and Afghanistan. After returning home from the Army, I found myself feeling lost and as though I was not done with that chapter of my life. I decided to return back to the fields of battle as a private contractor where I again served multiple combat tours in both Iraq and Afghanistan.
Eventually that chapter in life closed due injuries sustained over seas. Just as life does though one closed and another one opened. I found myself living in Florida with two Ranger brothers I served with in the military, while both going to school at MMI full time and working full time. Graduating MMI, I received certifications in all classes and models of Harley Davidson Motor Company including Screaming Eagle and Early Models. I also took some basic tech school courses in machining at night when available, giving myself a strong base knowledge of machine shop services .
After graduation I worked full time as lead Tech and Fabricator in a aftermarket shop in Orlando Fl. That shop is what truly sealed my ambitions to own and operate my own fully custom aftermarket Harley Davidson shop someday. Since then, myself, my beautiful wife, our two sons, two dogs, and cat have moved to the Great State of Texas where we now own and operate one of the fastest up and coming shops in the greater DFW area. You may have heard of us, we're kind of a big deal (In our own minds). LOL
We are the Kelly family, and we are HANG EM HIGH CUSTOMS!
