How long have you been in the PHCP-PVF industry?

13 years.

What drew you into the industry?

At the time, I was a senior in high school and just wanted to buy a newer car. I knew if I wanted one, it was time to get a job. My high school basketball coach at the time owned the company and so I started answering phone calls and filing papers and have made the most of every opportunity I have been given.

What is the most rewarding aspect of working in the industry?

I love getting to help homeowners and contractors choose fixtures for their homes and help pull it all together. Knowing someone trusts me to help make their house a home is such a heartwarming treat.

What motivates you every day?

Working tirelessly day in and day out to make a better life for my two rescue pups, Bear and Buddy. They make every day brighter.

What is one thing you wish more people knew/understood about the PHCP-PVF industry?

This industry is so vast and broad, there are so many opportunities to learn different trades and roles. There will always be a need for this industry and the many trades that are associated with it. No amount of technological innovations will ever replace the fact that at the end of the day, everyone needs to use the bathroom and especially down here in Southern Georgia, everyone needs air conditioning.

What has been your proudest moment in your career so far?

Earning the opportunity to buy into this wonderful company that I love and now being an owner.

What is one thing most people don’t know about you?

I play the violin and piano and love reading books in my spare time.
