Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My biggest inspiration in business is David Meltzer. At 16, I started my window cleaning business with just a squeegee and a bucket from The Home Depot. By 18, as a freshman at Xavier University, I had scaled to a professional filtration system, water-fed poles, and multiple workers. I cleaned 75+ homes and generated $12K in profit, turning a small idea into a real business.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by remembering why I started. At 16, I had a vision to build my own business. Seeing the growth from a bucket and squeegee to real equipment and employees keeps me pushing forward. I also learn from mentors like David Meltzer and focus on discipline, knowing progress comes from showing up and improving every day.

What would you do with the $25,000?

My goal is to see the smiles and awe on people’s faces when they see their windows sparkling. If I received $25,000, I would reinvest it into faster, professional equipment to grow my business and improve efficiency. This would allow me to serve more homes while also offering more affordable pricing, giving back to my community by making high-quality window cleaning accessible to more people
