To me, hospitality means treating people the way I'd want to be treated: with respect, honesty, and a willingness to help however I can.

What I enjoy most about construction is the sense of accomplishment: Starting with a pile of pieces you can't yet envision as a finished product, then watching the team bring it all together and turn that idea into a reality. I got started in the industry during my junior year of high school when I was offered a labor job that paid well, and I jumped at it. Working with my hands was always something I needed to stay busy. Day-to-day, what motivates me is my faith, my family, and the relationships I build with people. Thinking about the future I want for myself pushes me to be the best version of myself every day and learn as much as I can.

I like to stay busy when I'm not working, whether that's spending time outdoors on the water or in the woods. I love to grill, especially when there's a Minnesota sports team playing. I am a huge sports fan (Vikes, Wolves, Twins, Wild, all the way), and when I am not outside, you'll find me jamming out on the guitar or drums or getting ready for another adventure!
