Professional Information

I had the opportunity of learning how much satisfaction was obtained very early in life by working during my early teenage years for an uncle building small commercial projects and homes where in a small town we did the majority of the trade work. I am reminded of what he instilled in me on a regular basis about doing what you say you are going to do.

I continued to have early opportunities of being mentored by both Stewart and Company and Clegg Construction from high school through college of working myself up to Project Manager on numerous and varied projects.

The Irvine Company is where I learned that with the right team and people (Design/Build) that huge projects came together on a regular basis.
