Who, or dead, would you like to eat dinner with the most? And why?

Kobe Bryant. I truly admire his dedication and determination. Not exactly the most talented or athletic basketball player, but he was by far the hardest worker.

How did you get into construction?

Starting when I was 12 years old my father, who is a self-employed licensed electrician, would always bring me to jobsites. That’s when I was first exposed to construction. After attempting multiple roles in various industries, I never felt the sense of fulfillment that the construction industry provided. I love the collaboration involved and how I can visualize what my team and I are working towards. This industry allowed me to meet diverse groups of individuals and build relationships that I will cherish forever.

Who or what inspires you?

My parents are my greatest inspirations. They faced a lot of adversity throughout their lives and have always worked extremely hard to provide for us. I have never once seen them complain once about their fate.

What is one thing on your bucket list and will you accomplish it?

I would really like to visit every national park. So far, I can cross off three from my list. I still have a long way to go.
