At the age of 16, Wesley Ross is already surpassing boundaries in the business world. He recently started his own company, NorthStar Dynamics, that cater to several products essential during the coronavirus pandemic. In line with that, he managed to secure government contracts and make international deals for PPEs.

“I have always tried to do big things,” Ross told Twin Cities Pioneer Press. “I was not meant to be an everyday high-schooler.”

While large corporations were searching for much-needed disposable masks, Ross’ new company managed to close a deal with a Chinese factory at a relatively reasonable price.

But that’s only a fraction of his new venture. He is also bidding on small contracts that big businesses tend to ignore to supply things needed by the government. He finds a manufacturer to make it, a trucking company to deliver it, and a buyer to accept it. And even though the contracts are small, the quantity is good enough, allowing him to earn almost $10,000 last month.

Prior to NorthStar, Ross was 15-years old when he launched his first business called SpeedLabs, a line of car accessories and electronics. He intended to raise money for a car club and he actually made $5,500 in one summer.

Most recently, Ross launched NorthStar Dynamics without any start-up capital or even real business experience. But with his self-confidence, he is able to secure several deals for government contracts, the timely need for personal protective equipment, and to supply other businesses as well.
Moreover, he gives back to the community as he donated 250 masks for every 1,000 masks he sold and gave 25 percent of his revenue for coronavirus relief.
