Summary

Aanii Boozhoo!!//Hello and Greetings!

To start off id like to say thank you for taking the time to read this as well as your consideration!

My name is Shalon Strong and I am a 2000s baby, started my journey into the trades in 2020 as a carpenter and have expanded from there. I am self motivated as I have a large family and i am passionate about caring for them. my self nominated way of doing such has been to learn the new skills in all areas that help me to aid in repairs and remodels needed afforably while still delivering premium finishes over the average homeowner skill set, as well as one day building my own homestead. That being said every opportunity is a new learning experience and living "class session". I hope to bring a empowering spirit to your team as well as dependability and quality work as I push forward to feed my dreams.
