DES MOINES, Iowa — Ray Miller started his lawn care business with just one mower and singular mission
"If I can provide my service to help somebody else, why not?" said Miller, owner of Miller Way Lawn Care in Des Moines.
That was two years ago. Now, the entrepreneur offers a range of handyman services.
"This is has been a dream of mine since I was a little kid," he said.
These days, Miller is his own boss and has 10 part-time employees. But the journey to get here, he said, hasn't been easy.
