Amazing Arizonans: How Peoria mayor turned military gear into a mission to serve

I love Amazing Arizonans because we can take the time to learn more about the people that make our community better.

Peoria Mayor Jason Beck definitely qualifies.

Jason is a very successful businessman. He has built a multimillion dollar company called TYR Tactical, building body armor and armor plating for military and police departments all over the world.

He brings his business mind to leading the city as well. His story is so inspirational when you hear of his humble beginning. I hope you enjoy the discussion.
