Meet the Founders

Built by people who live it.

GoreMade is built by a team that lives the standard it sells — pairing the discipline of training with the craft of building the product, the brand, and the experience around it.

Joey Gore, Founder and CEO of GoreMade

Joey Gore

Founder & CEO

Joey spent his early career modeling, on the road for shoots as often as he was home. The travel was the work, and it was also the problem. Every time he left for a shoot, or a client left for one of their own, the training stopped and hard-won consistency slipped away. He started GoreMade to fix exactly that — a system built on the basics, done relentlessly, so the discipline holds no matter where the week takes you. Away from the camera, Joey lived in whitewater kayaks, on mountain bike trails, and on the jiu-jitsu mat. Every one of them taught the same lesson: pick the obstacle in front of you and go straight through it. Whether it was a rapid, a climb, or an opponent, the answer never changed — toughen up and conquer what's in front of you. That's the mentality he trains his clients to build.

Approach Joey believes discipline isn't built in the moments you feel motivated. It's built in the basics, repeated. No hacks. No shortcuts. Just the fundamentals done consistently, and the will to conquer whatever's in front of you.

Francisco Ibarra, Chief Marketing Officer at GoreMade

Francisco Ibarra

Chief Marketing Officer

Francisco is a UCLA graduate with a background in brand strategy, communications, and business development. He co-founded a boutique marketing and advertising agency in Los Angeles, and previously worked in public relations at R&CPMK, supporting brands including MasterClass and NVIDIA. At GoreMade, he oversees brand identity, partner communications, and member experience, making sure the standard of service matches the standard of the men it serves.

Approach Francisco believes a brand is only as strong as the experience behind it. Say less. Deliver more. Let the standard speak for itself.

Cadence Dimen, Co-Founder and Engineer at GoreMade

Cadence Dimen

Co-Founder & Engineer

Cadence is an engineer turned entrepreneur who leads the technical side of GoreMade from New York City. He builds the product that makes the standard easy to keep — the app, the systems, and the tools that put a coach in every client's pocket. His engineering background taught him how to break hard problems down and solve them; training taught him the discipline to keep showing up. GoreMade is where those two things meet: technology built to make healthy living simpler, and to help people live stronger, more consistent lives.

Approach Cadence believes good technology should get out of the way. Build the system so well that consistency feels effortless, and the discipline takes care of itself.

Your discipline doesn't stop when you travel. Start the standard that follows you.
