Born and raised in Whitesburg Kentucky it was inherent that I began my career as an underground coal miner. I moved to Owensboro Kentucky to finish my twelve year career in the coal industry before traveling two miles across the Ohio River to begin a new journey in Industrial Maintenance Management. Over the course of 18 years I have accrued a wide range of knowledge and skills from the coal industry, aluminum smelting, paper products, commercial kitchens, HVAC, and much more. My primary focus has been on reliability and pursuing efficiency through proper training and planning of preventative maintenance. I am still excited by maintenance, troubleshooting, and find preemptive solutions. I love a challenge and to see others succeed.
