I am the Southwest Plumber Support Manager for Rheem®. I am a master plumber licensed in the great state of Texas! I was formerly the training manager for a Plumbing & Air company in Houston, Texas. I worked with my last employer for 14½ years. I started at the bottom. I began as an apprentice and worked up to being a licensed plumber. Then, I became a supervisor and finally a manager. I came to plumbing as a second career due to changes in the world economy.
