自我介绍

I grew up on a remote island in Southeast Alaska. When I say remote, I mean you take a bush plane or boat to get there. Craig is a small commercial fishing town, and I grew up doing just that with my father. Summers were not for playing, they were for working hard on the boat in the family business. I jokingly tell people I learned to clean a fish before I could even walk. From there I received my bachelor degree in biology and my 100 ton Captains License in Juneau, Alaska; the state capital. I took a natural path into fisheries work, because that is what I grew up around, and went to work in Salmon Hatcheries helping manage facilities even more remote than the town I grew up in. I transitioned to working with Fish and Game collecting landing data from commercial fisherman and walking creeks and rivers full of salmon, while mingling with the bears that were there looking for their lunch. I later took a job on a research vessel where we performed fisheries research off the shores of Alaska. As fun and exhilarating as it all was, seeing animals and marine life most only know of because of National Geographic, along with the BEST sunrises and sunsets, I couldn’t have a normal home life while at sea 6 months out of the year. I knew I was meant for more… I took a leap of faith and followed another passion of mine, building beautiful homes. Not only beautiful, but Energy Efficient homes that are BETTER for the environment. It is important to me to make a positive impact. I joined forces with my partner who had the same calling. It is important to us that we implement Green Building Practices with Solar Panels on all our homes. Eventually Alaska felt too small and we thought Austin, Texas would welcome and align with that mission. Since the day we packed up the jeep and drove across the country for six weeks camping the whole way from Alaska to Austin in the roof top tent, we have met the most amazing people. The team makes the dream- this is true with our employees, real estate professionals, architects, and everyone else that has joined forces with us to help us grow an empire. It is our mission to build a legacy that will change the world one home at a time. We build it, you love it! #greenbuilder
