What Path Brought You Here?
I worked painting apartments with my older brother while I was in high school. After working for another company for one year, I started this business during my first year at Wayne State University.
How Long Have You Been Doing What You Do?
20 years +. I started painting while I was still in a short kilt!
Best Known For? Have a Knack For?
I am organized and work to complete jobs faster than promised. I have a knack for problem-solving.
Problem You Are Best At Solving For Clients?
Working around their schedules and staging jobs correctly to fit their needs. I work hard to avoid being labeled a “typical contractor” (Remember Eldin, the house painter on Murphy Brown?!).
