As I was growing up, my father taught my brothers & I how to build & remodel a house.  I also held several construction jobs through high school & college as a painter & concrete worker.  After college I was a professional electrician for 7 years, before entering a 33 year career in law enforcement.  During my career, I remodeled my own houses & continued projects.  I recently remodeled & sold a home in prescott.  Handyman work is a natural encore career & it allows me to schedule my own work and continue my volunteer work locally with Yavapai County Search & rescue and internationally with Samaritans Purse Disaster Area Response Team (DART).
