What was your background? What was your childhood like? What were you studying, and what did you think your life was going to look like? How did it change, and why?

Yeah, that's a, that's a great question.

You know, growing up, I grew up in a pretty normal American family.

My, my parents owned a construction business, built custom homes, and so, you know, with that came the thought that I would always, when I grew up, run the family business.

Um, it was kinda the logical path for me.

You know, and growing up, I got exposed to the ebbs and flows of that business and, you know, the, the positives and the, the downsides.

I'm sure you're familiar with the economic cycles, but in, you know, 2005 and when things were crazy and just houses were selling like gangbusters and everybody had three houses in Florida where we were, it was just nuts.

Should be around 1,000.
