My journey began in California, where I held licenses as both a General Contractor and a Painting Contractor. After a short stint in the New York City region, I moved to Lincoln, Nebraska. Here in Lincoln, I serve the nearby areas with residential building and remodeling services.

My expertise lies in kitchen and bathroom renovations, and I have a deep passion for custom woodworking and design. I enjoy collaborating with clients to turn their ideas into reality, especially when they have a clear vision for their kitchen, bathroom, or home addition. While I aim to stick to the timeline set for each job, my main focus is delivering quality work. Ultimately, my goal is to delight my clients with a stunning finished 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. After some time, I discovered my passion for self-employment. I persisted in painting and cultivated my talents in finish carpentry, enhancing my craftsmanship. Throughout the years, I learned multiple trades and became a General Contractor, managing large additions, kitchen and bathroom renovations, and installing wainscoting, doors, and various moldings. I even learned to install tile and hardwood flooring, eventually venturing into home building, where I enjoyed collaborating with couples on their home designs. Now, 42 years later, I continue to offer my services, blending my expertise, knowledge, and passion for construction and painting.
