Tell us a little about your business/organization: how did it begin; what are your services/products, etc.
After 20 years of working for a large corporation, I realized customers deserved better. That’s why I started providing competitive and reliable fire sprinkler and fire extinguisher services directly. When you call, you’ll speak with me—not a call center or multiple people—so you get the answers and service you need right away.
Tell us about your role in the business/organization.
I oversee every aspect of the day-to-day operations—personally handling service calls, repairs, and inspections. I also prepare proposals and ensure you have clear answers to any questions.
Tell us something that makes your business/organization unique.
My priority is to be there for customers—personally handling phone calls and making site visits to ensure clear answers and effective solutions.
What do you see for the future of your business/organization?
My vision is sustainable growth, to foster trusted customer relationships, provide an excellent work environment for future employees, and build a respected business within the community.
How has the Chamber helped your business/organization grow?
The Chamber has provided excellent networking opportunities, allowing me to connect with professionals from a variety of industries and build valuable relationships.
What is your best advice to other businesses/organizations?
The Chamber is the best place to grow your network, and customer service should always stay at the center. My advice for fire protection is this: don’t wait until it’s too late. Many people don’t think about it until they need it. Make sure your fire sprinklers and extinguishers are maintained so you’re always protected.
