Summary

Successful business owner and operator in the construction and energy industry. Experienced in analyzing blueprints, running calculations, and testing new construction with specialized equipment. Prior to opening my business, I worked in Southern Germany for the United States Department of Defense. I worked at the Edelweiss Lodge and Resort facility located in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. In 2019 I worked at Lockheed Martin as an Electronic Associate. I currently do not have a degree; however, I have earned 60 college credits from the College of Central Florida and the University of South Florida. Credit wise, this is equivalent to a two year Associates degree.
