Summary

I am interested in pursuing new avenues in my career. The main focus of my work for the last 25 plus years has been on resolution of construction defects and restoration of homes following destructive events. This is often performed while the residences are still occupied. I enjoy interacting directly with homeowners and easing their concerns, minimizing the disruption to their routines, and making the process as comfortable as possible.
