What's happening, I’m Tony — founder of Kustom Crafts LLC, a business built on redemption, resilience, and real love. I’m the youngest of three, raised by a strong single mother with two older sisters by my side. Later in life, my mom met the man I now call “Pops” — someone who stepped up and played a real father figure role when our dad never did. In my 20s, I struggled with something that destroyed me and nearly took my life: Alcohol. I was a full-blown alcoholic, and my addiction took me down some of the darkest roads. I was picked up by ambulances multiple times, even at my old job. Once, I had to be airlifted from Santa Fe to Albuquerque UNM Hospital. I went to rehab, got clean for a little while, but fell back. The bottle had a hold on me that I couldn’t shake.Then in 2019, everything changed. I lost my best friend, my sister Kimberly Cordova. Her passing shattered me. I spiraled deeper into addiction, trying to numb a pain that couldn't be dulled. But eventually, I hit a moment — a near-death experience so real, so terrifying, that while being in the ambulance the last time laying there crying I begged Jesus Christ to spare me. I asked for one more chance at life — not just to live, but to redeem myself and honor my sister’s memory. He heard me. And He saved me. On March 27th, 2021, I took my last drink. Since that day, I’ve been sober — and I’ve never looked back. I lost a lot to alcohol, including my entire $17,000 retirement from working for the City for 6 years which every penny of it was spent on liquor. But I’ve worked relentlessly since then, rebuilding not just my life, but something meaningful: my business. Kustom Crafts LLC is named after my sister Kimberly Cordova (her initials, “KC”), and everything I create is in her honor. She had a spirit that was too big, too vibrant for this world — and through my work, I keep that spirit alive. This business isn’t just about stickers or prints — it’s about purpose. It’s about second chances. It’s about family, faith, and creating something beautiful from pain. When you shop with me, you’re not just supporting a small business — you’re supporting a story of survival, love, and new beginnings. Thank you for being here. — Tony Cordova Founder, Kustom Crafts LLC
