About Me:

I grew up in garage learning from my father about fixing things. I found that this comes natural to me. I consider myself a jack of all trades. I have done everything from auto, home repair to plumbing and electricity. I am well rounded in most fields and what I have not tackled in life yet I welcome the challenge.

I love learning new things every day. Life would be boring to me if I did not learn something new every day.
I enjoy meeting and talking to people I meet every day, I love getting their opinions on their views life. I am also an amateur photographer. I love having my camera with me everywhere I go. You never know when the perfect picture will present itself.

I love being a father to my two girls, Victoria, 9 and Alexandrea, 7. They are a handful but it is worth every minute.

I am currently a service technician at Lacas Coffee and I enjoy my position here and the people I work with. I have been told that I am (The Man) but I fell I just try my best every day to be the best I can be.

My goals are simply to do my best in life and go out with many friends and family who can say nice things about me.
