My experience has been obtained through many different methods; my father, uncles, and grandparents taught me much about a good work ethic along with many skills, such as carpentry, mechanical, electrical, and sewing. I trained at the Forrest Career & Technology Center in Leonardtown with studies in electronic technology, after which I served in the Air Force and trained as a Security Forces Officer. After my service, I built custom homes for 2 years, then worked with a home improvement company building decks and renovating homes. For the last 15 years, I have been a moving specialist. My ability to understand the assembly of furniture has been valuable. I have also provided home repairs for major and minor moving damages. During my time as a moving specialist I continued to provide part-time home improvement services with a local company, along with helping friends & family.

I have grown up in St Mary's County and the most valuable gift we have is community; supporting our local small businesses keeps our communities strong.
