Additional Information
My father was a commercial masonry contractor, so I learned early about figuring, project management, reading blueprints, and contracting. I also had 4 uncles growing up that were farmers,
(Tobacco, corn, beans,cotton, etc.)
• I worked in the tobacco field & all other crops starting summers at age 7 then graduated to every role until I graduated. So that gave me a good work ectopic that I still carry with me to this day.
