I don't see any reliable, non-primary sources covering this person. There's also been a lot of WP:COI editing on this article which has been reported at WP:COIN. Strangely, while the article says he was on HGTV, I cannot find much to verify this- perhaps it was just a guest appearance? TheAwesomeHwyh 17:14, 26 October 2026 (UTC)
