Logan's Bio
I am 26 years old, born and raised in NW Indiana. Married my high school sweetheart at 19. She is a nurse, and in a short amount of time I bounced between several different jobs. We spent an amount of time overseas as teachers and school administrators, I drove a school bus, built high ropes courses, developed and ran extensive internship programs, was a director at a summer camp, and a youth minister.
Currently, I am operating my fathers company, which consists of 10 Laundromats in NWI. We also operate a carwash, 2 check cashing locations, and a tanning salon. The company was founded by my father when I was 9 on a whim. We used to have several dozen rental properties but as of the end of last year we consolidated all investments into the laundry industry. We are in the stages of a buyout, as my dad’s goal has always been to sell and retire at 55.
I also have a separate company of my own, (Washboard Laundry Solutions), that is the factory rep for Cryptopay laundry products. I plan to utilize this company to provide products and solutions for laundromat owners (when I can find the time!).
