Jim attended the University of Hawaii, where he graduated with a bachelor's degree of economics. Upon graduation, Jim went into project management for a custom home builder where he gained valuable experience in the installation and production process. He was responsible for ordering material and overseeing the tradesmen. 

After a few years Jim jumped over to the supplier side and worked for Beacon Building products where he sold material to contractors and became an expert in product knowledge. 

Jim is excited to start his career at Erdmann Outdoor Living and bring his years of sales experience and product knowledge to homeowners to help build their dream backyards.
