David Dewhirst | Founder and CEO

Dewhirst grew up in a suburb of Chicago, where his father was an FBI agent, but the family moved to East Tennessee in the mid-1970s, when he was 13. They lived in Knoxville while his parents fixed up an antebellum farmhouse in Decatur, Tenn., but eventually moved to the farm property, where Dewhirst would help drive the tractor, pull stumps and put up hay.

Although history was his favorite subject, Dewhirst in 1986 got an aerospace engineering degree from the University of Tennessee.
