President,
Razor Development, LLC
Born & raised in NYC and I grew up in public housing in the South Bronx when the South Bronx was burning. Went to Alfred E. Smith High School and took on a tradesman of carpentry. Not knowing then that I could be much more, I started questioning myself "can I really be much more even Thoe I was a "C" student. So, then I just said to myself work hard and be more then you are today and with TRULY my family and God loving grace and mercy I finally graduate from Syracuse University. I work with some large construction company to the point of going out on my own.
