Built By Us Podcast | Ep. 23 It All Started at Champs: Barbers Who Changed the Game

Some places do more than serve a purpose, they shape people. Champ’s Barbershop is one of those places. In this episode, we trace the roots of three incredible entrepreneurs who all started in the same shop and grew into industry leaders. Amit Corso, Jorge Valentin, and Tyrik Jackson didn’t just cut hair. They built businesses, mentored others, and sparked change in their communities. 

Champ’s Barbershop wasn’t just where they worked. It was where they learned, grew, and launched. From that one shop came thriving barber schools, national recognition, and a new standard for what it means to lead in this industry. This is a story about growth, legacy, and the kind of impact that starts small but doesn’t stay that way.
