It was in his 15th year, while he was working at a part-time job at Rocky’s Sub Pub, that he fell in love with the art of pizza making and found his true vocation. After graduating from Jeffersonville High School and acquiring a business degree from Ball State University, he set up his first pizza outlet at the back of his father’s failing tavern in 1984, thereby beginning his extraordinary journey.
