I built a very successful catering business along with my wife and my brother, Johnlee. I also owned two check cashing franchises. I was getting tired of the daily grind. I sold the catering business in 2009, and then I sold the check cashing business in 2010. At 50 years old, I was having a midlife crisis and starting over. Rocco Sileo did a briefing at my catering facility before it was sold and everything just made sense — the service, the company and the opportunity. I made a commitment to focus on my PPLSI business in 2011, and have been in the Performance Club ever since.

My wife, Deanne, left the catering business in 2004, to pursue a career in the mortgage lending world. She became very successful as well. In 2014, Deanne started to help me, and she saw the value of our service for her clients and for everyone we know. We have been building our business together ever since.

Our goal is to fill up the case with all our rings and be part of the Circle of Champions! We love this company and the ability to protect as many people as possible and share the opportunity that we were given. I always say if you take care of your clients/people, the money will come. WE ARE JUST GETTING STARTED! NEVER EVER, EVER, EVER GIVE UP!
