Handyman Painting L.L.C. isn't just a business; it's our family's way of standing back up.
In 2020, our world was shattered. We lost my uncle Refugio "Jason" Rodriguez and my 21-year-old sister, Ayla Bautista, to suicide. The weight of that grief nearly ended everything.
I found myself at rock bottom—homeless, sleeping in my car, and losing my footing in college. For a year, I struggled to keep $ee Money Productions afloat while facing false accusations and a broken spirit. But the memory of my sister forced a choice: do I let the darkness win, or do I become the man who offers solutions?
Today, I am no longer homeless. I am an optimist. I took the reigns of this business when my father needed time to heal, and now, I'm building it into a legacy we can both be proud of.

Autobiography coming soon...
My father founded this business as a pillar of strength. After a period of reflection and healing, he is returning to the field, bringing decades of expertise back to the communities of Minnesota and South Dakota.
