We are pleased to announce that our good friend Noah Galloway is joining the staff of Pearce & Associates Auction Company. Noah is a brand new apprentice auctioneer and will be training under sponsor Chip Pearce to conduct fund-raising auctions for non profits across the U.S. You may recognize Noah from Dancing with the Stars, the Fox reality TV show, American Grit or most recently as the honorary co chairman of the 2022 World Games in Birmingham, Alabama.
About Noah...
Sergeant Noah Galloway, a Birmingham, Alabama native, is the personification of valor and resilience. This Purple Heart awarded, double amputee decided to join the military as a result of the September 11th terror attacks. However, his battles didn’t end in the field when he was forced to adapt to a life with only two limbs after an IED attack during Operation Iraqi Freedom, which would take his left leg above the knee and his left arm above the elbow. Noah’s incredible journey to mental and physical wellness is one that he shares in his memoir titled Living with No Excuses; the Remarkable Rebirth of an American Soldier. Those words, “No Excuses,” became Noah’s mantra, as he rose out of a post trauma depression via his reinvigorating passion for fitness.
His victories at what one would expect him to see as impossible competition and obstacle races, would find Noah gaining a national spotlight. He become the first veteran and amputee to be featured on the cover of Men’s Health magazine earning their “Ultimate Guy” title in 2014 and landing him on the Ellen show. Noah also became a finalist on the hit ABC show Dancing with the Stars and would win the debut season of FOX’s American Grit.
As a result of the honorable position he gained with a national platform, Noah wanted to give back, so he launched the No Excuses Charitable Fund, which raises money and awareness for organizations that support causes which mean the most to Noah.
Now, as a fitness enthusiast and sought after motivational public speaker, Noah shares his story to encourage audiences and his fans to embrace the “No Excuses” lifestyle on their way to an enhanced mental and physical wellness.
In addition to assisting non profits with fundraising, Noah will be a Professional Asset Auction Marketing representative for Pearce & Associates serving clients nationwide who have significant collections, vintage automobiles, farm equipment and business assets that they need to liquidate.
"Looking back, I've had a successful military career, success in the entertainment world, and as a key note speaker and now to be apprenticing as an auctioneer is an exciting opportunity for me. Starting something new at age 40 can be intimidating, yet if fits perfectly with my motto, "living with no excuses". I am so excited to be learning all about auctioneering from my good friend Chip Pearce whom I truly respect. Chip is a man of fine character and also lives a life with the "never quit mentality". He has an incredible amount of experience as a professional auctioneer selling millions of dollars in assets for more than 35 years and will be a great mentor. I'm excited about being able to help nonprofits with their fund-raising needs but to also be able to work with corporate clients, banks and estate executors with our auction marketing services. NOAH
