After a brief stint in the NFL (Bang Bang Niner Gang!) and nearly two decades in the Bay Area tech scene, Brendan was getting tired of the corporate world. After dealing with several home service providers who were difficult and unreliable, he realized that he could use his sales and customer service skills to make pool care simple and transparent, starting in his own community and expanding into the greater East Bay. After receiving his Certified Pool Operator license, he began Lamorinda Pool Services. He lives in Orinda with his wife, three kids, and three rescue mutts.
