After a successful period in multi-family housing construction as a general contractor, and a subsequent change in principal ownership at Imperial Homes/Buildwiser Construction LLC, I left the construction industry and ultimately in 2008 joined Mo-Kan Distribution Service Inc., a privately held regional trucking company based out of Kansas City, as General Sales Manager .
After experiencing an overall diminished demand for shipping within the transportation industry as a result of the heightening recession, I ultimately left Mo-Kan Distribution Service Incorporated in 2010 holding the position of Vice President of Sales and Business Development, joining the team at Cable Dahmer Chevrolet in Independence, Missouri in January of 2011, where I am employed today.
I have consistently been involved in various community based and philanthropic organizations throughout my career and believe strongly in giving back to the community and helping out in any way I can.
