Joe Flores Maintenance Supervisor Hi my name is Joe Flores. I would like to start off by saying I'm not your average Joe. I have accomplished quite a bit in my 40 plus years. I have done numerous jobs and have gained a lot of experience in training in different fields. I've been an inline cook, to a tractor trailer driver, to an armed bodyguard, to a warehouse team leader in a Coca Cola plant, to construction work and operating heavy equipment, to also doing Maintenance work. With a family of 6 including myself I can't stop from expanding and learning more in order to provide for my family. Especially with the disabilities three of my kids deal with. I push hard everyday to be better then yesterday and I try to solve the mysteries or challenges life throws my way. I have accomplished with certification: Food handling, Adobe illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Dreamweaver, Entrepreneurship, CNC machinist 1, Fight or flight, tactical simulation training, close quarter simulation training, pistol dynamics training, hand to hand combat training, and a Class A commercial license as well as 608/410 HVAC license. Plus I am an Artist, I love to draw and create art work. I enjoy building things and taking things apart just to see how they work. So you can say I am not your average Joe. 
Scott Mello Jr. Maintenance Technician My name is Scott Mello Jr I am twenty five years old and I am a Maintenance Technician here at Sandalwood Village in Naples, Florida. I was originally drawn to the property by family members that previously lived here and I thought it would be a great place to work and expand my knowledge in the general maintenance department. I have a history in pool maintenance and customer service so this has been the perfect fit for me in the last two years I have been here. It's easy to forget you are working when you enjoy what you do!
