BACKGROUND
I grew up with a broom in my hand sweeping construction projects. My
father was a General Contractor I worked with him as time elapsed on
various projects. I helped build houses, restaurants, decks and docks. I
have dealt with building inspections and have extensive understanding of
building codes.
