Over 25 years of construction experience, starting in the field during high school, and continuing through my architectural technology and construction management degrees to now. Go Ferris State Bulldogs!

Lead projects from over 250,000sq/ft to a whopping 200sq/ft commercial kitchen remodel. Large or small I enjoy the details and the process

10-hour OSHA, Storm Water, and LEED certified

FUN FACTS

Not one to back down from a challenge, I’ve solved some tough ones. Managing the Union Station project was memorable because it involved moving a major north-south rail line and three large fiber optic lines, all while the station stayed operational

I’m a beach bum, living in the wrong state! Our family loves to spend time together at Pere Marquette Beach

Since it’s not always summer, I make the most of the cold by supporting my Grand Rapids Griffins and Muskegon Lumberjacks
