Metal Is My Canvas.

Watching a client fall in love with their rig again after seeing their new accessory for the first time is everything to me.

The ORA story.

For all of my life I have loved just being outside in nature. I loved driving around looking for paths and dirt roads to explore. One day, I saw my first lifted jeep and was obsessed. I knew I wanted to combine all of this in my life somehow. Then 10 years ago, I started working at a machine shop where I learned to weld… that was it, I was hooked! I knew working with metal was my art form. After a few years of learning the in’s and out’s of this craft, I had the chance to branch out on my own and ORA was born.

I started by building simple roof racks for myself, friends, and within a few years, I’ve had the chance to help people all over North Carolina go outside and stay outside. If you can dream it, or we can dream it together, we can build it!

The relationships I have with my clients and the ability to create really beautiful and useful off-road accessories keeps fueling my passion everyday and I feel lucky to be able to keep doing it.

Let’s build something awesome together.
