I am a young professional who believes in the raw value of hard work. All though I do not have a degree, I know how to learn, and if one knows how to learn, they can accomplish anything. I attended NMSU for two years for a degree in small business management. I ended up dropping out and pursuing a craftsman certification from Red Rocks Community College in Lakewood, Co. Shortly after completing my certification I got married and moved to Ankeny, Ia, where I worked as a fine finish carpenter and ran my own crew for one of the subcontractors in the area. Currently, though - and for the last 2 years - I have been working for my family's fertilizer company and rebuilding our product line and business model after 5 years of unsuccessful attempts to grow.I have a 2-year-old son and love to build furniture and disc golf.
