“I started in construction at 13, working alongside my father in his construction company in New Jersey. While most kids spent summers at the beach, I was learning how to read blueprints, use tools, and build things the right way.
After high school, I joined the Marines, which eventually brought me to Arkansas. Over the years, I worked in several areas of construction, including welding, heavy equipment operation, remodeling, and general contracting. But I always knew I wanted to build something of my own.
In 2020, my wife and I started Independence Construction. A few years later, we found our passion in custom home building. There’s nothing quite like helping a family turn an empty piece of land into a home they’ll enjoy for generations.
Building this company meant holding ourselves to a higher standard and never compromising on quality. Every project carries our name, and every client deserves our best.
Today, our reputation and relationships within the community are what matter most. The greatest reward is seeing a family’s reaction during the final walkthrough and knowing we’ve helped bring their vision to life.
I’m a licensed General Contractor, but more importantly, I’m committed to earning the trust our clients place in us. Building homes is what I do, but building relationships is why I do it.”
