ABOUT
"JACK OF ALL TRADES; A MASTER OF NONE"
GROWING UP ON A RANCH IN NORTHERN NEVADA YOU LEARN HOW TO DO A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING. THUS, ALLOWING ME TO ACQUIRE A VAST AMOUNT OF KNOWLEDGE ON HOMES, PROPERTY, RANCH, AND FARMS FROM THE GROUND UP. NOT TO MENTION AMASSED A BROAD COLLECTION OF TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT NEEDED TO GET THE JOB DONE RIGHT.
EXPERIENCED IN A VARIETY OF WATER SYSTEMS; RESIDENTIAL PLUMBING, WELLS, LANDSCAPE AND FIELD IRRIGATION.
MY ELECTRICAL KNOWLEDGE HAS ALLOWED ME TO COMPLETELY REWIRE HOMES. INSTALLED WATER PUMPS IN THE NEVADA DESERT WITH CAMERA ACESS, POWERED SOLEY WITH SOLAR ENERGY (PANELS). PROFICIENTLY WORK WITH AC TO DC SYSTEMS, 110V TO 220V, AND EVEN 12V.
EVERYDAY RANCH NEEDS AND MY APPRECIATION FOR THE OUTDOORS HAVE GIVEN ME THE ABILITY TO DESIGN AND COMPLETE A VARIETY OF PROJECTS. THESE INCLUDE FLATBED CONVERSIONS, CUSTOM GATES, RANCH PANELING, FENCING AND SPECIALITY EQUIPMENT SUCH AS TRAILERS, ROOFS, SILOS, ETC
PASSION TO CREATE DROVE ME TO GO TO SCHOOL FOR ARCHITECTURE. I RECEIVED MY BACHELORS IN ARCHITECTURE IN 2016 FROM SAN DIEGO. I WORKED UNDER AN ARCHITECT FOR 3 YEARS WHERE I COMPLETED MY INTERN DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (IDP) IN ORDER TO PURSUE MY LICENSURE. I GAINED THE KNOW HOW FROM START TO FINISH ON NUMEROUS PROJECTS. EVERYDAY, I AM GETTING CLOSER TO COMPLETING THIS JOURNEY AND MASTERING ARCHITECTURE.

BORN AND RAISED IN NORTHERN NEVADA ON A RANCH, WHERE IT IS CUSTOMARY TO STAY OUTSIDE. HENCE, I GREW UP OUTSIDE, WHAT THE ADULTS CALLED “WORKING” I DESCRIBED AS “PLAYING” (DRIVING TRACTORS, PLANTING, MOWING, AND PUTTING UP FENCE). IF YOU CAN NAME IT, I DID IT! RANCH LIFE GAVE ME THE KNOW HOW AND SPARKED INTRIGUE IN ME TO FIGURE OUT HOW THINGS WORKED AND HOW THEY WERE MADE. BUILDING IN GENERAL WAS ALWAYS A PASSION OF MINE, I LOVED MAKING/BUILDING ALL THINGS.
THIS LED ME TO PURSUE A CAREER IN ARCHITECTURE. AFTER HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION I MOVED TO RENO, NV WHERE I RECEIVED MY ASSOCIATES OF ARTS IN ARCHITECTURE. I THEN TRANSFERRED TO SAN DIEGO WHERE I OBTAINED MY BACHELORS IN ARCHITECTURE. SHORTLY THERE AFTER, I MOVED TO SANTA BARBARA TO WORK UNDER AN ARCHITECT. ONCE THERE I COMPLETED MY INTERN DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (IDP) HOURS IN PURSUE OF MY LICENSURE. I AM CURRENTLY ON PATH TO COMPLETE MY EXAMS AND ATTAIN MY LICENSURE IN ARCHITECTURE.
