I've spent over 38 years in construction and building maintenance — crossing between hands-on work, quality control, safety, facility management, teaching, and leading teams. That breadth isn't accidental. Every pivot taught me something the last role couldn't.
Today I consult and train for facilities and organizations that need practical expertise in leadership, cleaning programs, protocols, and real-world problem solving — not textbook theory.
