Summary

I started helping my father with his roofing company at age 12 until I got my first job at 17 which has instilled a good work ethic. My introduction to solar was at age 22 with my father on his friends job. I have also helped install solar in friends vans and buses. In 2020, I got a job at Powerhome and then at Titan. I've dedicated the last 4 years of my life to learn everything there is to know about solar. I’m a firm believer that solar can make a huge impact on the world.
