She is a sharp, elderly woman who grew up in this house since she was a child. 

My background is electrical (Red Seal Journeyman Electrician about to challenge the Masters Exam) and I will be starting an Electrical & General Contracting construction companyin the next month or so.I see great potential in the area as I grew up here and have seen a flat market all my life.

So I grew a beard!

I grew up in Orlando and have family there.
