SBDC Client Spotlight: Eagle Metalcraft, Inc.

Eagle Metalcraft, Inc. - Michael Bower
“The best way out is always through.” – Pulitzer Prize Winning American Poet Robert Frost

For Michael Bower, that quote, and those words could not be more descriptive of his entrepreneurial journey.  Michael was born in Arkansas on a farm and grew up without many of the civilized things we take for granted.  There was no running water or bathroom on the farm.  It was where he would develop the work ethic that would help him achieve his goal . . . more to come on that.

Michael enlisted in the United States Marine Corp and served for four years.  Following his Marine Corp service, he obtained a physics degree from Kent State University and over time, obtained a master’s degree in engineering from the University of South Florida.  Both great accomplishments for a man who never read books as a child in Arkansas!  During his professional career, he worked in a variety of operational management roles for both Eaton Corporation and United Technologies Corporation (UTC), but he knew he wanted more.  He knew he wanted to purchase and run his own company.
