Summary

Dynamic laborer with experience in a vast variety of basic construction earned at RGI General Contractors. Received a college business degree while performing at a high level on a Division 1 collegiate team. Working diligently on a professional golf career for most of my life has instilled a strong sense of self-accountability and strong work ethic while also teaching me how to deal with and be successful in high pressure situations, or more importantly how to positively react to failure. That type of self accountability, hard working, and mental toughness is what I hope to offer any future employer.
