remodeling houses as I developed my Career in the Hospitality
Industry. Often working 15 hour days I was able to launch my
Electrical contracting business landing my first project remodeling a
fitness gym in Scottsdale and then just worked on referral and word of
mouth performing no advertising and brought sales to just under $400K
in 2001. From 2001 I found the niche of residential remodeling built,
marketed and managed a business of 17 employees preforming between 25
– 45 Residential remodeling projects simultaneously and continuously

In 2008 all work stopped and we went to survival mode having to lay
off all but 3 employees, we all put tool belts back on and went to
work for the few that were still working. In 2010 I found my first
hotel renovation project I was able to perform (2) projects at the
same time. I then started marketing to the Hotel Contractors around
the country. In 2011 I obtained my California Electrical Contractors
License. Since 2011 I have been Marketing, Selling and building a
business that will do $3.2M in 2015 as well as buying a General
Contracting business in Florida specifically geared to Hotel Renovations.
