Rogers, a New Orleans native grew up with a passion for gardening, which later evolved into his love for Science, Metrology and Environmental studies. He often reflects on a commercial that depicted a Native American Indian dishearten by once a pristine landscape that became desolate and defiled due to pollution. That commercial left a profound impact on him, which resulted in the development of a philosophy that, “Respect what Mother Nature has provided, and preserve what God has given for future generations.” This philosophy along with the “going green” movement ignited him to seek business opportunities in the field.
