Summary

Driven and innovative, I spearheaded a tiny house construction project, honing skills in framing, plumbing, and electrical work, while mastering project management. This self-funded initiative, under Building a Tiny House, showcases my problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and goal-oriented mindset. A quick learner and hard worker, I excel in both teamwork and solo projects. I am willing to do the hard work. I am known to be the first to show up and last to leave. My most popular compliment I receive is I am a hard work, and I take pride in that.

Building a Tiny House
05.2024 - Current

My most recent experience with construction has been my current project of building a tiny house. I am doing this with the intent to sell the house so I can have the money to get my contractors license when I graduate. I am funding the project myself and building it by myself. It is 25 feet long and 8.5 feet wide and 13.25 feet tall with a lofted bed. This project has taught me so much about framing,plumbing,electrical,etc. It has also taught me so much about the construction process like planning, estimating materials, and cost. I have loved the experience it has brought me and can't wait to continue working on it.
