I am an entrepreneur with a passion for people and creating opportunities that enable people to grow, achieve their career goals, make more money, and be proud of what they do.I grew up working odd jobs in my family business before pursuing a degree in entrepreneurship and marketing. I joined Go-Forth Pest Control full-time in 2004, working in every position, including crawling in crawl spaces, digging trenches, answering phones, and washing vehicles. In 2013 I became the third generation owner.My vision for Go-Forth Pest Control was to become an industry leader, being innovative and taking risks along the way. We have since expanded beyond the NC Triad to Mooresville, Hickory, Charlotte, Fayetteville, Raleigh, and Wilmington. Beyond North Carolina, we have opened branches in Columbia, South Carolina as well as Fredericksburg, Richmond, and Virginia Beach, Virginia. As one of the fastest growing pest control companies in the country, Go-Forth Pest is ranked in the top 50 (revenue) of Pest Control companies by Pest Control Technology Magazine.Go-Forth Pest Control is a multi-year Fast 50 Company, Best Place to Work in the Triad, and Triad Family Business Award winner. Go-Forth is passionate about serving the needs of our team by offering a robust employee wellness program and encouraging professional development.In addition to Go-Forth Pest Control, I am Owner and General Partner of Carolina Acquisition Partners (CAP). CAP was formed to fulfill a need in an underserved market segment of business owners without succession strategies. Our strategic partnerships with various organizations allow us to gain efficiencies for the businesses we acquire, manage, and grow, subsequently providing an expeditious ROI for our lenders.Along with my passion for the work I do through Go-Forth and CAP, I am first a husband to my wife, Leah, and father to my 4 young children. I live for coaching and watching my kids play soccer and cheering on our favorite sports teams (Panthers, Tarheels and Hotspurs) as a family. We are very proud to sponsor local soccer teams. As a rebellious kid, soccer was my anchor and helped me to focus my energy. I am passionate about giving back to the soccer community and helping to provide that anchor.
