Interests
I am a pretty busy, yet focused person. In my free time I love to spend outdoors in nature, hiking and backpacking through forests and snowy mountains. If I am not outside, I love listening to music in my shop and building motorcycles and working on cars. I plan to join the IBEW as a lineman within the near future. Customer service is a very important part of my professional work, as I believe that customers should treated like family.
