ABOUT ME
Throuout my life I've always been driven to succeed at anything I've been challenged with doing. This has made me a great employee for many great companies over the years, but my vision has always been to provide for my self and my family in a different way, that being an employee just simply could not do. I saw an opportunity to make that happen and took it.
I have been lucky to have had so many good mentors along the way, and to this day I've found the most important lesson I've learned has been to never stop learning. I try to take something new from everyday experience or from a conversation with fellow drillers and apply it to overcome the challenges that often face us.
