About me
I am a US Army veteran with a background in construction engineering. After leaving the service, I worked for a drilling and construction company which installed pier supports for foundations. I then transitioned into real estate appraisal for the States of Ohio and Indiana. While working as a real estate appraiser, I owned and operated a residential rehab company. Looking for a change, I went back to school in pursuit of a degree in Hospitality Management Technology, and graduated Summa Cum Laude. After working in the hospitality industry, I decided to return to my roots in a real estate related field where my knowledge can help others.
My Credentials & Training
I am a Certified Professional Inspector® trained by InterNACHI—the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (www.NACHI.org)—which is the world’s largest nonprofit association of residential and commercial property inspectors, and provides education, training, certification, benefits and support for its members. All InterNACHI-Certified Professional Inspectors® are required to pass an Inspector Exam, follow a comprehensive Standards of Practice, abide by a strict Code of Ethics, and take accredited Continuing Education courses each year in order to maintain their membership in good standing.
I have acquired extensive home inspector training through InterNACHI’s rigorous Continuing Education curriculum, which includes dozens of live classroom, online, and video training courses, written by experts in their field, which have received more than 1,400 accreditations by state and governmental agencies throughout North America.
