About Kirby Atwell: After serving as a US Army officer from 2005-2011, Kirby left the military to become a full-time entrepreneur. With a passion for real estate, he and his two partners started and scaled their first company, iCandy Homes and Capital, completing over 75 real estate projects over 4.5 years while also completing his MBA at the University of Illinois Chicago. In May of 2016, feeling called to do more work with veterans, Kirby left iCandy Homes to start a purpose-driven company, Green Vet Homes. The Green Vet Homes’ mission is to purchase, rehab, and rent houses. Part of the profit from the deals they do goes to veteran-related causes, and some of the homes they rent are rented to homeless veterans through a voucher program called HUD/VASH. While growing Green Vet Homes, Kirby started working closely with Bunker Labs, a national non-profit organization that helps veteran entrepreneurs start and grow businesses. After receiving huge support from Bunker Labs while growing his business, Kirby joined the Bunker Labs team as the Chief Operating Officer. Bunker Labs currently has offices in 28 markets across the US and continues to grow and assist veteran entrepreneurs. Currently, Kirby operates Green Vet Homes as the Founder/CEO while serving as COO for Bunker Labs at the national headquarters located in Chicago, IL. You can find Kirby Atwell on . . .
