I know at State Electric we’ve taken advantage of the training academy ABC has and I’m looking forward to being a part of developing those services to accommodate all of our members.” “I am a firm believer in the Rockefeller Habits for running and analyzing business decisions. Construction has always been fun to me, so it is more than a job. While at Kent, I had direct oversight of the Redford office in Detroit, where I forged industry relationships and learned the culture of Detroit and its surrounding areas. I look forward to the opportunity to serve!”
