Biography
I began working in the masonry field during summer break when I was in middle school and continued until college. I have always enjoyed working with my hands and I chose to go to college for construction technology. I graduated from Lehigh Carbon Community College in 2011 with an associate’s degree in Construction Technology.
I have worked for several different residential and commercial construction companies throughout my career. I also worked in the career and technology education field as an instructional assistant prior to becoming an instructor. Most recently I worked for a commercial masonry company called The Witmer Group.
I reside in Lancaster County with my family, including my wife, children, and dog. I enjoy the outdoors and staying active. In my spare time, I enjoy keeping bees and raising chickens.
