  • I'm a 5th generation Navy Veteran and our daughter also served in the Navy as a Gunners mate. I'm a typical family man and work hard to continue to provide for them. I'm not much for the lime light and prefer others to get the spot light. My work, drive and 34 plus years total in the trades here in the bay area speaks for itself. The best part is I love this trade. I'm a bit of an early riser. Normally getting to the job site by 3:30 to 4 am. Getting ahead of things for self performed crews as well as subs.
