Later, while still in Brazil, he opened his first construction company specializing in woodwork. In 2002, Izzy came to the U.S. to expand his career and knowledge and became a fully-licensed general contractor. Almeida Woodworkers and Almeida General Construction are the results of Izzy's successful career in woodworking. He operates a woodshop capable of producing high-quality custom cabinetry and built-in furniture, as well as manages a fleet of skilled workers for large-scale builds and general construction.
