Work Philosophy
Having worked my way up from general laborer, installing doors, steel decking, and concrete at work, to studying construction and managing/leading crews, to designing and building homes and additions, I have a comprehensive understanding of the entire process— start to finish. I am a team-oriented professional who is passionate about consistently exceeding client expectations.
