In a nutshell I’m a builder and operator. A get shit done kind of person.
I’ve never had a title, business card, or email signature. A couple pieces of paper and some people have said I’m a Owner, Co-Founder, COO, and some other BS that doesn’t mean anything.
Achievements I’m most proud of
- Value of projects executed = $10+ Billion
- Products sold for merchants = $2 Billion+
- Small Businesses helped = 100+
- People I helped employ = 150
- Families I’ve helped immigrate to Canada = 3
