I grew up out-doors, in the sun, on Florida’s west coast. Witha master’s degree in international finance, I spent 20 yearswith Fortune 500 companies. I decided to get out of theirsandbox and play in my own. I opened my ProTect franchiseseven years ago, and have expressed my true colors eversince. I love it. And you'll find it’s hard to botch this business:it’s simple, all cash flow, and the freedom is captivating.
