I grew up in West Palm Beach and I've lived in Palm Beach County my whole life. These are the same places I grew up around, and now I get to build a business in the area I call home.
I went to John I. Leonard High School and wrestled there. Wrestling is all hustle — and that's how we work.
JunkHustle started when my dad lost his job and started scrapping metal with his trailer. I'd always wanted to start a business, and junk removal made sense — he already had the truck and the trailer. So I went to him and said, basically, "I'll look for junk removal jobs and we can go do them." That's really how it started.
“Being able to come in, take care of the junk, and make things a little easier for them is probably my favorite part.”Before this I worked in a warehouse, and I knew that job wasn't going to give me or my family the life I wanted. Now I get to build something from scratch.
My favorite part of the job is taking some of the stress off people. Cleanouts especially can be a lot — a house, a garage, or a situation where somebody has a lot going on. Coming in, taking care of the junk and making things a little easier for them is what I like most.
“I like being real with people and I don't want customers to feel like they're dealing with some salesman.”I'm pretty laid-back and I like being real with people. I don't want you to feel like you're dealing with a salesman — I want to help and find a solution to whatever you're dealing with.
Outside of work, I spend a lot of time with my son and my family, and I like playing chess and dominoes. I'm driven, and I want to see how far I can take JunkHustle.
