About

At 65, I decided it was time to take control of my own future. After years of facing challenges with both physical disability and mental health, I realized that traditional employment opportunities weren’t always accessible. Rather than giving up, I chose to create my own path.

​

In March, after conversations with my wife, the idea for a lawn care business was born. By April, Sharkie’s 1-Armed Yard Maintenance was up and running — and it has been an incredibly rewarding journey ever since.

​

Yes, some jobs can be challenging with just one arm, but I take pride in getting the work done right and showing that determination matters more than obstacles.

​

As for the name? Since 2016, friends have called me Sharkie thanks to the tiger shark tattoo on my stump. It only felt natural to carry that name into the business — and the rest is history.

​

At Sharkie’s, I bring dedication, resilience, and a personal touch to every yard I care for.
