After being in school for 2 years I worked at Louisiana Crane and Construction as a technician getting hands on training. We worked on anything from $100 lawn mowers to multi-million dollar cranes. This turned into a 12 year career for me. In my later years of being a technician at La Crane & Construction, I found myself in a dark place and felt stuck as if that was all life had to offer me. I decided then, that it was time to start my own path and satisfy the entrepreneur in me so I began looking for franchise opportunities. I found the cost of franchising to be way more than I could afford. It became discouraging until one day my wife Courtney & friend Josh said, “why don’t you work for yourself!? You have drive, knowledge & motivation.” I contemplated for a long time to figure what that looked like.

Shortly after that conversation, that will forever be my turning point, I heard from a former co-worker Kenny that had quit to go run a crane at a refinery being built making a large sum of money.
