About me

As a US Army veteran hailing from Toms River, NJ, my journey has been one of diverse experiences and unwavering dedication to service, both to my country and to my community. After proudly serving as a member of SOT-A 102, a military intelegence team attached to the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Special Forces Group Airborne, I transitioned into civilian life with a commitment to continued excellence.

My academic pursuits led me to graduate with honors from the University of Georgia and later to obtain a degree from the California Western School of Law. However, my entrepreneurial spirit beckoned, leading me to embark on a venture in real estate investing, which flourished until 2016. Seeking new challenges, I transitioned into the salon industry, establishing a successful business alongside my wife, who is a Master Cosmetologist.

The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic prompted a period of reflection and adaptation, ultimately guiding me to explore new avenues in management within the car wash and restaurant industries. Embracing change, I embraced the opportunity to lead as a General Manager, leveraging my leadership skills and business acumen to drive success in these dynamic environments.

Currently, I proudly serve as the Director of Students and Career Services at the International School of Skin, Nailcare & Massage Therapy in Sandy Springs, GA. In this role, I draw upon my diverse background to empower and guide students as they embark on their own journeys in the beauty industry. My experiences in leadership, entrepreneurship, and service have equipped me with a unique perspective and a passion for helping others achieve their goals.

As I continue to evolve and grow professionally, I remain committed to making a positive impact, both within the beauty school industry and beyond. My journey is a testament to the power of resilience, adaptability, and a steadfast dedication to excellence.

My goal is to showcase the various features and capabilities of Canvas ME, highlighting its potential to facilitate seamless communication, collaboration, and learning. I want to illustrate how Canvas ME can empower both educators and students to achieve their goals more effectively.

Furthermore, I plan to demonstrate how Canvas ME integrates with existing systems and tools used within our school, ensuring a smooth transition and maximizing its impact on our educational ecosystem.
