He has facilitated many advancements in the past few years by implementing several new strategies and processes to improve overall production.

The idea of Off-Site Construction has allowed the company to focus on goals to decrease manpower needs on the job site to help reduce risks, to eliminate delays, and deliver on condensed construction schedules, and to ultimately accelerate the owner’s ability to generate revenue/income.
