JAROD JONES
Jarod Jones serves as President and CEO of Apex Fiberglass Inc., continuing a proud family legacy of craftsmanship and integrity. A fourth-generation son-in-law to lead the company, Jarod inherited AFI from his father-in-law, Steve Galloway, and carries forward the same commitment to quality and excellence that has defined the business for decades.
Beyond his leadership at AFI, Jarod is passionate about faith, family, and community. He and his wife, Laura, have five children and love spending time together outdoors — especially cheering on the Auburn Tigers. Jarod is also the founder of Life Ranch, a local nonprofit dedicated to supporting children and families within the foster care system.
