A poor kid from Portland, Oregon with eight brothers and sisters. I have owned and operated more than a dozen companies over the last 20 years with combined sales of more than $450 million. I have had more than 10,000 employees and have owned and operated many types of business including: Transportation, gas stations, car washes, convenience stores, reclaimed wood, a management company, and a driver services company. I have also been active as an industrial and commercial real estate investor and own more than 100,000 square feet in the Portland area, a residential land developer and homebuilder, and have bought, sold, remodeled and flipped more houses than I can count.
