It's been quite a journey since graduation. I spent 5 years in the Marine Corps, including being a Marine Security Guard at the embassy in La Paz, Bolivia (where I met and married my first wife). I have also spent 8 years in AZ (where my parents resided until their passing), and is the birthplace of my construction company.
We moved back to IL in 1987, and have been here ever since. I remarried in 1999 to my lovely wife Julie.
My specialty has always been ceramic tile and natural stone installation. Besides general construction skills (thanks to my dads home building, Glenbrook North & Souths building trades program, and Triton college's construction technology classes), I have advanced into natural stone restoration. My business has strictly been based on referrals (which is a definite asset in today's economy).
I love NASCAR and attending local stock car racing events.
I also enjoy participating on several websites assisting DIY homeowners and proffessionals alike.
Moved to Florida in February 2015 to work at MAPEI Corp. in Deerfield Beach. Julie and I now reside in Delray Beach, FL.
