Okay, I will stop here with the formalities and tell you a bit about myself.

My whole life I have grown up in business from a very young age. I am a business minded individual who surprisingly isn't money motivated. I have gotten into business early and helped them grow as it is a passion of mine.

I also started my own business in 2019 creating and manufacturing e-liquid for the vaping market.

I have a long history of business to business experience and consumer experience.

I have always been the guy that the rest of the team leans on when dealing with an upset customer or general problems that are lie in the grey area. I thrive in the grey area.

When I worked at the wholesale flooring company, I became the top sales person to walk into the door within my first two months, the owner realized I was also business savvy and put me as the team lead. He had me develop and grow a large section of the commercial branch doing business to business contracts as well and going to trade events.

I was the general manager at Mower Doc where I ended up basically running the small business for the owner until he sold it in the last year. I worked there for 7 years, it was my first job after highschool and I was fortunate to have a great mentor there. I also became a master service technician in my time there (we worked on and sold outdoor power equipment. I.E Riding mowers, push mowers, generators etc.)

Currently I am helping my mother develop and grow her tobacco shop business. We have grown from nothing to doing over 1.4mil a year and still seeing rapid year over year growth.

I am not highly educated in the traditional since of college, I did not attend college however, I am always looking to absorb new knowledge in my life and I have quite a bit of experience in business and sales.
