About Donald

Donald Jarvis is a disabled combat veteran who believes the most meaningful things happen when people come together with a shared purpose. Through his time in the Massachusetts Army National Guard, including deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, he developed a strong appreciation for teamwork, resilience, and the importance of showing up for others – values that continue to guide him today.

Now focused on community and creativity, Donald enjoys building ideas into something real – whether it’s a hands-on project, a simple concept that turns into something more, or an experience worth sharing. This site is a place to document those moments along the way – the projects, ideas, and places that stood out.
