“I can still really remember the day that I walked on the first jobsite and saw a fully outfitted 15W Gardner-Denver. I took a look at that and I’m like, ‘Yeah, this thing’s pretty cool. I need to get my hands on this.’ ”

He started his own business doing well and pump service a few years later, and now years later focuses on municipal projects in Ontario.
