Day to Day
I do all of my own work from start to finish. I do all aspects of construction, from structural to infrastructure to finish work. Some days I do 2 different trades, like electrical and plumbing and I usually am never doing the same thing from one week to the next. A great day is when I am able to take my time and make everything look and work correctly. At the same time, I enjoy getting a lot done in a day.
Advice for Getting Started
Here's the first step for high school students
Get a job working in construction. While you need a degree, hands on experience is much more valuable.
