Started in residential at age 17, full time. Learned building envelope by covering homes with paper/wire and proper flashings with a Stucco company. 8 years later I decided safety was more important and I moved into commercial vertical systems and metal roofing. I can say now being 40 and working in this industry since than that architectural metal is a passion of mine. Hopefully I can continue working outside, with great people and fun projects in the future!
