Why We’re Proud to Have Gary in the Jackal Pack

But real community—the kind that lifts people up, watches out for each other, and speaks the truth even when it’s uncomfortable—that’s why the Jackal Pack exists. Gary Quinn of Quality Brushstrokes is living proof: you’ll find heart, grit, and a sense of duty to others in every step of his journey.
