COOPER B. | GCMS Class of 2027

Cooper is the owner of "Brake Bros Lawn Care", providing reliable lawn care services to help homeowners maintain their properties with consistency and quality. What started as something he’s enjoyed for years has grown into a business focused on trust, strong relationships, and professional results.

Throughout the CEO Program, Cooper has continued developing both his business and his personal skill set. From learning to ask more thoughtful questions to reflecting on strengths through personality assessments, he’s taken a well-rounded approach to growth this year. He also delivered a strong presentation during the Shark Tank experience, representing his work with confidence.

One challenge he shared stands out: learning his own value as a business owner... an important step for any entrepreneur.

His mindset moving forward: “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.”

You can find Cooper at the CEO Trade Show on April 16 at the Gibson City Bible Church.
