THE UPLIFT TEAM
Ben Pitassi, Co-Founder

Blake Robinson, Co-Founder

Josh Higgins, Board Member
Josh is a California native and a founding agent of Compass Real Estates in La Jolla. As a fourth generation ARMY Veteran and multi rated Free Fall Instructor, Josh has logged over 4,000 skydives (a handful of B.A.S.E jumps and a few Speed Wing Flights) which has kept him increasingly close to the Active Duty & Veteran military community. Josh’s personal and professional life are ever intertwined having endured the loss of many good friends / clients while witnessing the scars of war. Josh brings years of relationship building and investment strategy to The Uplift Union as he looks to grow the organization and give back to our Veterans. Josh’s additional obsessions are his wife Kathryn and two children Henry & Harper, surfing, skiing and traveling.

Linda Rangel, Board Member

Lin used to be a skydiver but gave that nonsense up to be there for her beautiful daughter, Maddy Sue. Eventually though, the Uplift Team is going to coherence her into paragliding. Actually, with all the material we have dating back to the sixth grade, maybe a better term would be blackmail?
