My background in working with my hands begins in my youth, when I had no choice but to help my dad with projects around the house, or building sets for my high school theatre productions. Once I started living on my own, my Thompson DIY genes really began to emerge. I loved the feeling of resourcefulness from fixing things myself. I soon went on to hone my skills in a professional capacity, for residential and commercial properties. 

The Circle T name comes from my Grandparents' old silk screening business, which they ran out of their home in Swartz Creek, Michigan. I have many warm childhood memories of their basement, which was full of paints, equipment, and t shirts designed and printed for local businesses and little league teams. As for naming my own venture, I knew from the get go that I'd carry on the family moniker. I hope to provide for my community with the same integrity and friendliness that my Grandma and Grandpa did.
