About Me

About Me

I am an 3rd Year Aerospace Engineering Student and MBA Candidate at the University fo Cincinnati. I am from a small town in central Ohio where I graduated from Buckeye Central High School. Back in my prime (highschool), I played varsity football, basketball, and track and field. I now have my private pilot liscense and spend much of my free time developing Swift based applications and static webpages. Outside of a professional setting, you'll probably catch me with friends, exercising, and in the outdoors.

Great App!

Headacre

Jun 29 2023

My competitors have invested thousands of dollars into their aerial equipment such as drones, but I am paying pennies on the dime for the same access. The default version is great for quoting time per acre with satellite derived geographical amenities and estimating service charges, but I have found the most success using the pro version. Headacre has saved me so many miles, gas and miscellaneous expenses that come with having one of my guys traveling from site to site making bids on jobs. With the pro version I can save clientele contact information which links to all of our devices (No need to keep files and disseminate, it's all done through the app!), environmental and geographical information and logistical data. Headacre has taken the headache out of management!
