Casa Grande,AZ

Summary

My upbringing in a small town in Illinois shaped my childhood, but my bold move to Arizona has been a game- changer. I have successfully completed four summers here and have proven my resilience to the weather. I have found my home in Casa Grande, Az., with my future Mrs. and fur babies. I am a reliable professional with 30+ years of experience handling mechanical needs. Knowledgeable, dedicated and offering superior skills in concrete work, handyman services, and maintenance.
