I’ve always been an inquisitive and observant person, traits that naturally led me into the world of home improvement and inspection. My love for this kind of work started when I was young—my uncle, grandfather, and great-grandfather were all craftsmen, either professionally or in their free time. Watching them build, fix, and create sparked a lifelong fascination with how homes work and how they’re put together.

That passion took root early, but it truly flourished at 21 when I bought my first home—a 1926 bungalow in true “landlord special” condition. With a few borrowed tools from the local hardware store, I learned to tackle repairs on the fly and fell in love not just with that house, but with all houses through time.

For the past six years, I’ve been running my own handyman business, helping homeowners maintain and repair their properties with care and craftsmanship. This all naturally transitioned into my career as a home inspector. I’ve spent the last four years working with one of Portland’s top-rated home inspection companies, where I’ve refined my understanding of homes from the ground up. I'm proud to now be offering inspections under my own company.
