Owned and operated a auto body / repair center from 2005-2011. During 2007, even though the economy slowed down my business grew and I sold the building I was operating out of and moved into another building that was twice it's size. From there the business ran successfully until I closed shop in December 2011 due to the building I was operating out of got sold, and I wanted to slow down for a few years since I was working full time at Cabot Microelectronics and running the shop at the same time. I also did not have any other suitable commercial locations to move into at this time that would have suited my business needs.
While operating my auto body shop, I was a licensed as a car dealership.
Held a Mortgage and Insurance license in 2002 while training for Citibank. Did not renew licenses after changing paths and going to work in the construction industry...
In my spare time I buy and rehab houses, then turn them into rental properties.
