Our team

While Alley has spent most of her life around guns, only in the past few years has she been shooting and teaching others about firearms and firearm safety. Alley leads the Ann Arbor chapter of TWAW (The Well-Armed Woman) and loves helping women become more confident about owning and handling firearms. Way to go, Alley!

Brad is a 27-year law enforcement veteran with decades of experience working in special operations, including SWAT team and protection detail with the United States Secret Service and other federal agencies. His deep involvement in special weapons and tactics training during his career is why he is passionate about providing quality instruction and helping create responsible armed citizens.

Brendan has always had a passion for firearms and shooting sports. He is also highly customer service oriented—with a drive to help people in general. He feels working at Ann Arbor Arms provides the perfect opportunity to combine these two passions and ensure A3 patrons have a rich experience every time.

Ethan loves that A3 provides an awesome facility where gun enthusiasts can exercise their Second Amendment rights throughout the year. Ethan feels strongly that to become a proficient shooter, consistency and persistence are key (as well as a lot of ammo). Ethan’s favorite quote comes from Einstein: “The measure of intelligence is the ability to change.”

Greg has long been an enthusiast of both shooting sports and life in general. He has been a partner at A3 since the facility was opened in 2015 and looks forward to continuing to build positive customer relationships and create a business that appeals to the broad community.

Greg learned to shoot from his father and grandfather, both avid hunters. Over the years, he has grown to be a big firearm enthusiast, so it’s not exactly shocking that when asked about his favorite firearm, he answered without pause: “A GLOCK!”

Jonathon is an ardent outdoorsman and loves sharing his passion with our customers at Ann Arbor Arms. As a firearm enthusiast, it’s not surprising that one of his favorite quotes comes from the movie Tombstone, which highlights the infamous gunfight at the O.K. Corral: “I’m your huckleberry.” (Doc Holliday)

Kerry’s first recreational shooting experience started at Ann Arbor Arms, and she is proud to say that she learned from the best! Today, she enjoys sharing her passion of shooting sports with A3’s wonderful customers. Kerry’s favorite “shoot-em-up” movie is Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

Kyle is a firearm enthusiast from all angles. He is also a man of few words. When asked to write his bio for A3’s site, he stated: “I like guns.” We feel you, Kyle!

Michael is all about safety—understanding that simply owning a firearm doesn’t mean you can shoot. Michael is adamant that with conceal carrying, training and practicing under stress is vital. One of his favorite quotes is: “Awareness is good, but without skill and ability tied to that awareness, all you have is anxiety.” (Tony Blauer)

Preston loves the unique operating systems of exotic firearms. He also loves sharing his expertise about these firearms with A3 staff and customers, including how to use them effectively and safely.

Tonia was first introduced to firearms by her husband, and since has developed a love for recreational shooting and firearm safety. She is also passionate about introducing the sport to other women—focused on helping build A3’s brand to be even more welcoming to female patrons.
