Member of DKPOA, attend the island cleanup days and the annual meetings 2 A We moved to the Homestead area when I was 2 years old, when my mom and dad were stationed at Homestead Air Base, I had friends in the Keys and would come down to fish, dive and enjoy the islands all through my childhood and young adult life. In 1996 we bought our house on Duck Key after losing our house in Andrew and I have called Duck home ever since. Started a drilling and blasting company in 2008 called HSB/High Sierra Blasting, in Lake Tahoe, NV. I am in the process of starting another business here with a partner that will be a locally based company and provide employment for residents of Monroe County, and providing services within Monroe as well, operational by Spring of 2020. 0 I am very much so focused on providing local work so residents can enjoy what the Keys have to offer; we will be active in the community with the new business and I am very much so looking forward to starting another company that will be based here in the Keys. 0 0 0 E c� Packet Pg. 2911
