How long has your business been running and what is your favorite part of it? “It’s been running since 1984 and the best part about it is the freedom. It gives me freedom to do things because I am my own boss, I would say.”
What inspired you to continue this business? “It’s just something that I have always done since I was a junior in high school and I guess it’s all I know. I have a family and I have to support my family and my kids. That’s why I get up everyday.”
What are your most significant accomplishments? “I would say just the fact that where the business started 30 years ago to where it is now and just being able to survive that long in this kind of business is an accomplishment.”
