Summary

As a long-time associate of the building industry, my goal is to always progress my working position. While I grow my knowledge in product I also aim to hone my skills in design. Alongside those goals is my capacity to work with people and fit into their various lifestyles. San Juan Island is a very special place with a very particular set of skills needed to succeed, and that is what I want to deliver to my clients and coworkers.
