Meet Justin Campbell of Firefly
Preview: I have always had a passion for building and design. As a child, in my free time I would work on projects in my parent’s garage in Bradenton, FL where I grew up. One time, I even tried to carve a dugout canoe from a block of wood. I would drive my parent’s crazy making a mess of their garage, but learning how things work and how to create was constantly on my mind. Some of my first construction projects were working on and remodeling large boats.
