Six-Word-Bio

"Eager. Fun yet Serious. Dad Jokes."

Why did you choose AG|CM?

I wanted to transition from contractor to construction management and AG|CM had the right fit for me, with the family atmosphere and outlook for positive company growth.

How did you get into this industry? / Did you always know you wanted this career?

My father was in construction so I was always around construction people as we traveled the country for different projects. The stories they would tell about the industry and their colorful tales of unique situations and projects pulled me into the industry.

What was your first job ever?

Utility player at Wendy’s after high school.
