 Additional Information
What are you doing now:

After a successful career as a Chef, I decided to utilize my college education and go into business for myself, choosing to try my hand in the construction trades, falling back on the things I learned growing up on the farm and through working with my grandfather -- carpentry, masonry, and steelwork. I started Empire Construction Enterprises, LLC (www.empireconstructionofmichigan.com) in 1999 [originally formed as CL Brown's Aquatic Services in 1997), and have been serving the greater Southwest Michigan area from Muskegon to Ann Arbor and as far South as Indiana. I had the priviledge of working with some of the most talented Civil Engineers and 'Seabee' construction workers that the Navy had to offer. Between 2003 and 2013, I spent over six and a half years as a mobilized Reservist, (more like part-time Navy because there was a business still operating at home) deployed around the world to Crete, Italy, Spain, Germany, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Diego Garcia (BIOT), Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, Comoros Island, Djibouti, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kuwait, Iraq, and Afghanistan.
