Where did you grow up? Spokane, Washington.

What painting experience do you have? 20 years approximately. Residential, industrial, commercial, faux finishes, specialty finishes, lacquers, stains, murals. I have an interior design degree, so I feel like I’m quite artistic. 

What are your hobbies? So big hobbies are archery, cooking. I like to cook because I like to eat. I also do lots of sports like biking, hiking, etc.

What is your favorite thing about your job? My favorite thing about my job is, that it’s a small way to make the world a more beautiful place, right? You know, not a lot of people get that opportunity. There aren’t a lot of people that go out of their way to make the world just a little bit better, and thankfully I get paid to do that, so I consider myself blessed.
