In 2006 Four Corners Remodeling, Inc. won the silver NARI’s COTY award in the category Commercial Remodel – Interior for Eastern Massachusetts.

A university graduate with a BA degree, I have worked in the building and remodeling fields over 25 years. I enrolled in NARI’s Certified Lead Carpenter program and earned the CLC designation in 1997. In 1993 I took the Certified Remodeler program, earning the CR designation. I was awarded NARI’s top honor, the CR Superstar of the Year Award, for getting the highest mark in the country on the CR program’s 6-hour final exam that year.

Other continuing education programs
In 2005, I was a seminar speaker at the JLC Live conference in Providence, RI for the second time. I have served as a session moderator many times there as well.
