Before construction, I was a pilot. What interested me most about aviation was not only flying, but understanding how things worked, how they were built, and how every component depended on the next.

When I found construction, that same curiosity came with me. I started with carpentry and quickly became interested in much more than the finished product. I wanted to understand the structure behind the walls, how materials worked together, why details mattered, and how all the pieces of a project came together.

The more I learned, the more I wanted to know. Carpentry led to larger projects, greater responsibility, and eventually FF CRPNTRY.

Aviation also shaped the way I approach the work. In a cockpit, close enough is not good enough. You prepare, follow a process, check your work, and understand that other people are depending on your decisions. Construction is a different world, but that sense of responsibility has stayed with me.

What I enjoy most has not really changed. I still like understanding how things work, solving problems, and building. There is something satisfying about taking an idea or a set of plans and turning it into something real, something you can stand back and be proud of.
