I started in the construction industry when I was 16. While still in high school, I learned how to work with my hands and develop a good work ethic. I worked in roofing for about 4 to 5 years, doing both residential and commercial roofing. After the roofing industry, I explored various trades until I discovered my passion for sheet metal. I worked in architectural sheet metal, designing, laying out, fabricating, etc., which allowed me to develop a keen eye for detail. After about eight years in architectural metal, I took a risk and transitioned to the sales and business side of the industry. I learned what it took to generate a job, bid on it, order materials, and schedule the crew. I worked for about three different contracting companies, searching for an example of how I wanted to conduct my business. Unfortunately, I never found it. Finally, I made the decision to create it myself: Titan Building Solutions.
