I led secure communications operations across global deployments where mission-critical systems meant the difference between success and failure. After my military service, I transitioned to **enterprise IT leadership at Quanta Services**, managing infrastructure for 200+ entities across 50+ locations. I learned how to scale systems, lead cross-functional teams, and optimize processes for maximum efficiency. Then came the entrepreneurial chapter. I founded **Roof Repair Services LLC** and a general contracting company, where I discovered the power of SEO and digital visibility firsthand. When I was diagnosed with **testicular cancer**, I fought back with everything I had. That same relentless drive — the one forged in the Marines, tested in the corporate world, and proven in entrepreneurship — now fuels every campaign I run for my clients.
