Brett's Profile
Hello, I am Brett Robinson.
I started in the career world as a musician (drummer). I played many different
styles from country to hard rock, including auditioning against 40 other drummers
in Hollywood. It was to work on a project with Jose Chepito Areas(Former Percussionist
for Santana), and got it!
Lots of glitz, no money (hence the phrase starving musician), so I needed to take
another avenue and chose construction because it was more lucrative and gave me a
creative rush like music.
Working in Southern California, as I worked my way up the construction ladder (pun
intended), I learned many trades and eventually became a superintendant. As superintendant,
to make sure jobs were completed on schedule, I would assist or take on different aspects
of the project. One such project was an exotic pet shop in downtown Beverly Hills, where I
did all the carpentry, cabinetry, and laminate work. As with many of my projects, this was
my first attempt. I have the ability to design and the mechanical common sense to complete
the project.
I've spent the last 14 years in a small town in Missouri with my wife(Kat), where we are
in the process of restoring a 2 story colonial farm house. I have 3 children, my son Anthony(25,
who is the talented designer and technician of this website), and my 2 daughters Christy(22yrs)
and Candice(18yrs). I also have a grandson, Logan.
Learning construction in a place with the toughest building codes, then moving to an area
where building codes are very minimal, has given me the freedom to design and test the
products with out the head aches and expenses of a lot of added red tape. Yet, I never stopped
ensuring the quality of my work was the same as it was with all the codes.
Hope you enjoy my site and I look forward to hearing from you.
