I oversee day-to-day operations across multiple markets, ensuring our teams are equipped, motivated, and empowered to deliver exceptional service when it matters most.My journey has taken me from Sales to Regional Sales Manager and from Project Manager to Operations Manager, eventually pushing me to the executive level—where I now focus on optimizing field performance, strengthening team culture, and scaling our systems to match our growth. I hold the Triple Master Designation with the IICRC in Water Restoration, Fire & Smoke Restoration, and Textile Cleaning—credentials that underscore my commitment to both technical expertise and operational leadership.I’m passionate about developing the next generation of leaders in this industry.
