Our Team
David Fair
Founder and CEO
Shortly after the attack on our Embassy and CIA Annex in
Benghazi, Libya, David ran into Kris “Tanto” Paronto, one of the war fighters and heroes that saved countless lives at the CIA Annex. David collaborated with “Tanto” on a Safe Room System that could have saved the lives of our Ambassador, Chris Stevens, and others as they came under a very orchestrated attack by ISIS. From that meeting, American Defense Solutions was born and has continued to evolve into a complete “Defense in Depth” company that specializes in Saving Lives. David is also no stranger to long guns- his long – range shooting skills are exceptional.
