Additional Information

I thoroughly enjoyed my job at Tierrasanta ACE hardware. I learned quite a bit in those nine years and I feel that I may have taught them a little as well. I most certainly did not want to leave seeing as, I created close relationships with many of my customers that I miss dearly. However, I do look forward to new learning experiences, creating new relationships, and possibly sharing some of my ideas at other ACE's.
