Accomplishments
My business in seattle, Zeitgeist Coffee grew from a $100,000. a year company to 1.4 million in the time that I owned and operated it. I sold my company in 2023 to focus on a different path. The coffee shop still runs today and is busier than ever. I have completed full build outs of many projects including a private residence in rural Washington State. Most projects can be viewed at Fulcrumdesignstudio.com. I also helped with design work with a number of townhouses in Seattle. Making design choices to have the homes stand out in the market place. Presently I am doing a mid-sized home remodel in Tucson with a client (kitchen, livingroom, bath) I am designer/ project manager.
Cooking, Painting, wood working, reading knowledge seeking, long drives, yoga and meditation.
I have many interests that keep my mind occupied. These are meditative practices that help my overall well being. I love learning and self improvement.
