Fun Fact

In high school, my brother and I started and directed the first high school marching band in the city of Philadelphia in over 20 years. It was my first taste of leadership and learning how to deal with all types of personalities and conflicts of interest.

Passion

I am passionate about teamwork. I will not take advantage of others or cut corners in my work. This, above all else, sets me apart - I am willing to do things the right way even when it costs me because it is the right thing to do.
