Dr. Suez taught me that I had brains in my head and feet in my shoes that could steer me in any direction I choose.At 14 I rode my bike to answer phones and take care of customers at a block plant. I moved on to sand, gravel, rocks, dirt, ready mix and big trucks when I got my drivers license. From there I shifted to small commercial and industrial construction and development. I took a flying leap to the skies and fell in love with all things aviation; aircraft ground handling, fueling, aircraft charters, maintenance, instruction and flight support. After selling companies I turned to philanthropy and volunteered my time for several years at a local high school mentoring and consulting with teens through a character development and personal achievement program. My passion is helping others feel valued. Improving the quality of life of those I serve plus empower and encourage them to see the best of themselves. This quote by Jim Rohn sums it up pretty well. "If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much."
