Hello,
I have always enjoyed working with people and solving problems. As an insurance professional I get to experience a level of challenge and discovery on a consistent basis. It took a few years to find my niche but it is a great fit for me now. Best regards!

Hi there,
When I was a kid, I was very into building things, and I had a creative mind. I was always drawing, painting, and taking things apart and putting them back together. As I got older, I thought about going into the trades but was pressured into a more academically-oriented career path. Eventually went to undergrad and grad school for landscape architecture, and found my way years later into construction. It hits all of the notes that I enjoy in my life and career, and although I'm glad that I made the choices that I've made to get me to where I am today, I wish that I had given myself a little more credit when I was younger and realized that we find many of our passions when we are young, and don't have outside pressure to make other decisions.
