For as long as I can remember, art has been my outlet. Growing up in a small town in California, I was the nerdy kid who walked around school with a rolled-up piece of artwork from art class. Fast forward to today, I have three beautiful children and a supportive wife who encourages me in every new venture I pursue.

As a military spouse, frequent relocations made it challenging to figure out what I wanted to be when I “grew up.” One day, I decided to try my hand at laser engraving. This was my opportunity to combine art, design, and everything I love.

The journey has been long, and there have been many times when I considered giving up and returning to a “safer,” but less fulfilling, career. However, I am fortunate to have friends and family who continue to cheer me on and keep me motivated.

To anyone who has read this far, I want to sincerely thank you for being a part of my journey. I have finally found what I love to do and who I want to be when I “grow up.” So, thank you for believing in me!
