Before Fame

He grew up with exposure to property maintenance at a very young age due to his father's past as a seasoned mechanic. He attended a technical college to earn a degree in computer science and began his career as an employee of the United States Postal Service. However, his passion for property management motivated him to save up enough money to purchase his first piece of construction equipment in 2009 - a 1965 John Deere 1010 Dozer for $3500. He gradually acquired more equipment and took on construction projects in his spare time, while still working for the USPS. Within a few short years, he was able to resign from the postal service and focus fulltime on his company, Camarata Property Maintenance, LLC.

Trivia

In April 2020, he appeared as a guest on the Essential Craftsman Podcast with Nate Wadsworth. He is widely known for the modern castle he built on his home property, entirely out of shipping containers, which he has stated are faster, cheaper, and easier to build with than traditional construction materials.

Family Life

He is the son of Susan Anne and Andrew Camarata, Sr. He has a younger sister named Chelsea. His 2 pet Labrador Retrievers, Cody and Blue, have starred in many of the videos on his YouTube channel.
