Tell us about your career:

I started out as a porter for US Shelter Corp in 1979. I was a student at Methodist College and worked part time at Heather Ridge Apartments just to make a little extra money.  As fate would have it, I had two federally funded scholarships discontinued on the same morning. I went to work wondering what I was going to do.  As I was cleaning the pool, I was approached by the company vice president who offered me the position of maintenance supervisor.

I realized that this was either divine intervention, or just a lucky break, as I needed a career change and one just showed up. I became a maintenance supervisor and found 40 years later that this was meant to be. I love what I do for a living. How many people can truly say that? Now I have the perfect job with the perfect company, and I work with people whom I think the world of.
