Hi everybody, I’m Brian Armer. Thank you for being here.
I’ve been an athlete nerd the majority of my life. Have had numerous broken bones, plenty of wounds, and some pretty crazy stories along the way!
My best buddy is my dog. 100% of the time. If he can’t go, I can’t go. Best buddies are best buddies, always. Let'ss goooo!
A little tidbit that I rarely talk about, but if interested, I have fought and survived cancer. Had it not been for, to this day, a few of my life’s passions, Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, and mixed martial arts, I would not be here, literally. I've been training and fighting from 15 years old. At 23 on my birthday, after a heavy week at college, I fought a Jiu-Jitsu competition and was forced to go to the hospital after blacking out. They found non-Hodgkins’ lymphoma cancer around my lungs, heart, esophagus, and into my jaw. The doctors gave me one month to live, I said "NA, we fight!" and began the 10-year adventure.
While fighting for remission, Juice - My Beautiful Secret, and Glass Cut Eternity are another piece of life I don’t often speak of. I had the honor of fronting a few amazing bands. It, music, was what kept me with hope and purpose, alive with passion. Between singing, and the minimal martial arts I could do physically, I found theses as breathing, life giving. The boys I was playing with from Sexart, Karma Hit List, Videodrone, Cradle of Thorns, Adema, Juice, and My Beautiful secret are absolutely amazing musicians, and it was such an honor. Love you boys!
We had an amazing run, life happens, and you keep on truckin!
I ran facilities for years at Chevron North American Exploration and Production, gaining incredibly valuable experience, skill, and responsibility. This is where I met my second-best friend.
I left Chevron as my soon-to-be wife who was fighting breast cancer and I were both on the same lease which created a potential issue in contract, and I simply refused to complicate her, what I thought was healing. She was an amazing chemical engineer who lost her life to breast cancer, on the day we were to be married. Yeahh...deep breath, exhale...
And, that begins the story of running a microbiologic microturbine reactor site. Where I created energy from microbiology to power a microturbine powered process of cleaning non-potable water into potable water, to place back into human consumption, safely. Thank you, Chevron, for all the amazing training and experience in critical thinking.
The mad scientist that I am, with a brain that is always firing like Tesla's coil, had this lightning storm of a passion burning for what was to become Zombie Sport Company. It's alive! It'sss alivee!
