Introduction

I started my lawn care business Grass Chompers in summer 2018 after a long 15 year career in Active Duty Army, from 101st ABN at Ft Campbell, KY to Ft Lee VA, to Ft Riley, KS to Ft Knox, KY with 3 big bold tours totaling about 36 months in Iraq and Afghanistan where the Army awarded me multiple medals during those deployments including the BRONZE STAR for my spectacular performance, my small BN S4 team did great too, in Afghanistan in 2012 as the sole Logistics Officer for the Parwan Province with General Jallil (AFG) and also CJTF-1 Bagram Command and Staff (for over 700 people). I enjoy the sound of my equipment and do great work it soothes my mind from all deployments and hardships I endured especially seeing people dying in my arms over there as I'm yelling out "Call in the 9-line! How do you undo this combat seatbelt!!!" But Grass Chompers started a couple years ago in Hillsborough County, FL (Tampa and area), in the Reserves I was with a unit out of Tampa the 387th Transportation Det. and moved from there where I presently serve as a commander and Major of a unit in Army Reserves at Ft Knox ...back in Hardin County ready to service the entire Louisville metro area and beyond...I do great lawncare with the mowing, blower, weed eat, bush trimmer and edger if needed. Discounts available please ask in person. I enjoy owning my own small business and serving all who need lawn care, and I enjoy still serving in the Army and thankful and proud to be the commander of a highly skilled unit out of Ft Knox that trains semi-truck 88M drivers and more.
