About

A dedicated and highly disciplined individual with a strong work ethic and a diverse skill set, I bring a unique blend of experience to any project. My background includes formal carpentry training, practical construction experience, and a year of rigorous service in the Hellenic Army's Special Forces-Presidential Guard, fostering unwavering discipline and the ability to perform under pressure. Proficient in blueprint reading, waterproofing, and heavy equipment operation, I am committed to quality workmanship and continuous learning.

My experience as a General Laborer and in waterproofing has honed my ability to assess sites, apply materials accurately, and ensure quality control. I am a Level C First Aid & CPR certified carpenter, eager to contribute my skills to high-quality construction projects. Beyond my professional life, I am a devoted husband, father, and dog owner who enjoys spending time outdoors, tackling home renovation projects, and cherishing moments with family and friends.
