I started the company February of 2008, in a very hard time of the economy. I started Home Media Innovations with some boxes of wire, lots of knowledge and very strong will to succeed. Through rough times, every year in business, HMI increased sales any where from 10 - 30 percent and is still growing to this day. Tenacity, maintaining relationships and a great reputation has been vital keys to Home Media's success. One thing I learned in the industry, "NO", doesn't mean never, it just means not today. I am a very motivated, personable, loyal and dedicated individual who is willing to do what it takes to succeed. SKILLS Strategic planning
