- I bought the store in spring of 2018. I did about $1.2M in annual sales.

I had usually about 3-4 staff. I had planned on selling after about 5 years of operations and so the plan worked fairly well and so in summer of 2023 I sold out.

- In June of 2014 or so we purchased a recycling business. We had it for about four years. Sold out in early spring of 2018.

- From about 2005 I was also an ISP installer. I installed internet connections across this area and also some as far south as Strathmore. I did this while I ran the recycling business as well.

During this time in 2005 I also started up a Magnetsign business. which I did that for about 5 years.

- I have been self-employed for the last 20 some years. Currently semi retired.

In spring of 2024 I was asked to manage a business to bring them out of bankruptcy which I did that for 18 months.
