About
I am a practical guy who grew up with my dad owning multiple businesses and teaching me what he could about them. Managing, marketing, accounting, customer service, and many other aspects about being a business owner, director, or even a manger. I was able to get a taste of leadership and management through Boy Scouts and finishing my eagle scout project to attain the highest rank one can earn in the organization. Now I'm in college trying to pursue what life was giving me from the start.

Customer service and economics are also a consideration of mine.

Technician
Fusion Cleaning A family owned carpet, upholstery, tile, and grout cleaning business. I worked with machines in a truck which would run all solutions to the tools which would deep clean the carpets. The second half of my job was interacting with the customers in their home. Conversing with the customer ranged from a variety of things such as, the actual job, describing the cleaning, looking at certain bad spots in the carpet, and even small talk to develop trust with the customer.
