So I dropped out.

I'd always worked with my hands, worked in the trades.

And I dropped out and I just started working in construction full time.

And then I realized I probably wanted something to fall back on because I wasn't in love with where I was or what I was doing.

I still just didn't really have a path.

And I think I kind of fell into construction by proxy.

And then I ended up transferring to Drexel University in Philadelphia, where I met my wife.

And I went to school.

I got a construction management degree, which was primarily commercial.

And I absolutely hated it.

It was terrible.

All my internships, I absolutely hated.

And so when I got done college...

I decided that I wanted to, it was probably naive and, and extremely foolish of me, but I would just start my own company because I could charge 35, 40 bucks an hour.

And that was way more than any of my friends would be making.

And I would be set and I, you know, a couple of years into it, struggling, not making money five years into it, still struggling seven years into it, realizing that it just wasn't a viable model.

Um,

so i started switching things up and started marketing myself a little bit better but then you know seven to ten years rebranding and starting to understand business and i think now i'm 15 16 years in business and i have i'm not from a business perspective i'm not this amazing incredible

yeah so my my dad i he wasn't really a contractor he he kind of was a contractor but he he would buy rental properties that were disheveled and run down and he would renovate them and then pull equity out of them and borrow against them and buy more rental properties

And then if things got slower, he needed cash, he would do some jobs for people.
