I am a native of North County San Diego. After graduating from Rancho Buena Vista High School, I joined the United States Army at the age of 18 and was headed off to boot camp in Georgia. I served for 4 years and did one tour in Afghanistan. Upon my return, I got out of the Army and started a family. I met my wife Britanny in the same neighborhood in which we grew up and unfortunately never met her as a kid. We have four children now and they range in age from 6 months to 10 years old and I love them very much. I have been in the painting business for over 6 years and used to paint and do stucco work prior to becoming a commercial estimator for CertaPro Painters® which is something I love doing. I like being able to utilize my math skills to create an estimate that gives our clients the fairest up-front costs and avoids later changes to the order. I love meeting new people and can listen to stories for hours without getting bored. I believe in making friends with our clients in order to help them as well as help my own family. Our short-term family goals are to save up to take a trip to Hawaii with my family and drink Pina Coladas on the beach and go jump off the waterfalls there.
