I went to UNF for civil engineering and felt disenchanted by the whole formal education thing, so I dropped out after my summer sales job knocking doors at 18 because I needed money and didn't know exactly what I was doing with my life. I didn't have a plan. I just knew I wanted more out of life and was willing to work harder than most for it.
That decision took me through eight markets over the last ten years. I have built teams, led people, made mistakes, learned how to sell, learned how to manage, and learned that nobody is coming to hand you the life you want.
Last year I earned in take home income. I have saved and invested over $2M. I am proud of it, but the money was never about looking rich or proving something. It gives me options. It let me buy property, invest in my future, but more importantly it helps the people I care about, and helps me build a life that feels like mine instead of just clocking in to build someone else's dreams.
I still knock doors. I still love the work. Sales gave me more than income. It taught me confidence, discipline, leadership, and what happens when you stop waiting for circumstances to change. It's also given me a lot of free time to travel, find out who I want to be, and to write my book I Wish You the Worst. There is more to life than business but this business has given me all of it. I want to keep building things that last, whether that is a team, a business, property, a book, or a life I am proud of.
I love my family more than the scoreboard. My girl. The kid. The people who still get the real version of me. Sales paid for the life in these pictures. Time together. Travel. Showing up at home. That is the point.
We are building something special out of Jacksonville this year. If you qualify for this team, plug in immediately.

Why this room
Still knocking. Still coaching.
01
Still in the field.
I still knock, still close, still train. The playbook you get is the one I ran last week.
02
You keep the money.
I built $2M through saving and investing, and I teach my reps the same system. Making it is step one.
03
Jacksonville. 2027.
Main seats are in the 904. Out-of-town gets a look if the work ethic is obvious.
The company
A real product. Third-party awards. Fortune 500 parent.
Vivint, an NRG company (NYSE: NRG). 2M+ US homes. 9-year average customer relationship. These are Vivint’s awards, not mine.
Tap an award.
Forbes
Named one of the Best Home Security Companies of 2023. Still ranked in Forbes Home's 2026 roundup. Best for smart detection.
NRG Energy
Fortune 500 parent. Public company. You sell a real product to homeowners, not a pitch deck.
Uncapped commission on a real product. The money is the scoreboard. What you keep is the communication, grit, and self-management, for whatever you do next.
Talking to strangers
You run real in-home presentations. Talking to strangers, reading a room, and closing. Not a script on a screen.
Self-management
No hourly babysitter. You show up, run your day, and the scoreboard is public. That is a rare skill at 20.
Resilience
Door-to-door is a filter. Grit, recovery, and showing up again the next day. That transfers to every career after this.
Keep what you earn
The lesson I taught on the Champions stage: making it is step one. Saving and investing is the actual job.
A real network
You spend a summer with people who compete. Those rooms follow you into the next decade.
Uncapped pay
Commission on a product people keep. No ceiling, no draw that owns you, no recruiting pyramid.
