Brooks has worked his way up from sweeping the floors as a child. He's held the positions of Director of Sales in the Millwork Division, VP of Human Resouces, and Sales & Marketing Manager.

In his spare time . . . Brooks founded Proof Eyewear with two of his four brothers in 2010 and appeared on the hit show, Shark Tank. Proof Eyewear makes, among other designs, wood-framed sunglasses with a social conscience—$10 from each frame sold goes to their Do Good program that gives back to local + global projects.
