If you are someone who wants to know more about personal safety or have reasons to require a firearm this podcast is for you. Tune right into it.

a laborer, equipment operator, foreman, and superintendent, in the underground utility industry.
He started his first Company, Terra Contracting, in 1992. With the help of his wife and son. They have built another 7 companies throughout the Southwest. These companies include construction companies, a traffic control company, a distribution company selling concrete and asphalt repair products, and a firearms training company.
He is in the process of retiring from his positions in the construction companies and will be focusing on firearms training. Currently, this is where his passion is.
His wife and he have trained 9 dogs and continue to train dogs for a foundation, Canine Companions for Independence, which supplies assistance dogs at no charge to people in need.
