Summary
As a veteran of the US Air Force, I have spent my life in service to others. I consistently look for opportunities to bring a smile to someone's face, to lend them a hand, and to make their day brighter.
I am well versed in all phases of home inspections and owned my own Professional Home Inspection company for 26 years in the Greater Houston Area.
I spent over a decade in property management creating great homes for my residents through the delivery of thoughtful customer service, swift maintenance and a welcoming environment.
