Born at Derby Street in Cocoa I grew up along the shores
of the Indian River and built my first boat at age 14. After spending some time working in boat
yards and sailing the Caribbean I became involved in construction,
receiving my General Contractors license in 1974. For a number of years I partnered on ventures with Jesse
Parker in Central Brevard and later joined the Staff at Wuesthoff Hospital
as hospital carpenter. During my
stay with Wuesthoff I began computer training and eventually became a certified
Applications Specialist for the Archibus Facilities Program, doing some
training and consultant work for several years. I joined the Real Estate integration team when Progress
Energy was formed in 2001 and developed several properties with them. I led the Winter Garden, Longwood and
Odena Operations Centers planning teams through the bidding and evaluation
phases; in 2003 I took over the Odena project and completed it in
2004. While I enjoyed the work with
Software and Project Management it was exhausting and kept me away from
family. In 2004 I returned to Cocoa
and joined Trafford Realty Company:where I earned my RE Brokers license.
