I started my career in California, obtaining licenses as a General Contractor and a Painting Contractor. Following a brief period in New York City, I settled in Lincoln, Nebraska. In Lincoln, I am dedicated to serving the local communities with residential construction and remodeling.

I specialize in kitchen and bathroom remodels, with a strong passion for custom woodworking and design. I love helping clients bring their ideas to life, particularly when they envision their dream kitchen, bathroom, or home addition. While I aim to stick to the timeline set for each job, my main focus is delivering quality work. My primary objective is to please my customers with an exceptional final product.

I started working at a small remodeling company when I was 18. I then moved to Taylor Construction, where I worked for three years until the projects slowed down. I transitioned to painting with Mike Shabalski Painting, quickly advancing to foreman, overseeing material orders and work schedules. Eventually, I recognized my ambition to work independently. I persisted in painting and cultivated my talents in finish carpentry, enhancing my craftsmanship. As time passed, I acquired skills in different trades and became a General Contractor, working on significant additions, kitchen and bathroom remodels, and installing wainscoting, doors, and a variety of moldings. I also picked up tile and hardwood flooring installation, eventually entering home building, where I loved working with couples to design their homes. Forty-two years later, I remain dedicated to offering my services, merging my expertise, knowledge, and love for construction and painting.
