How did you get into the contracting business?
I am a third-generation bricklayer. I started my business slowly, by working alone, and then added more men as the company grew. Eventually, I found that I had a real instinct for business, and that I could be successful as a contractor of a larger company, so I pursued the business accordingly.
We became a member of the MCAA because?
I believe that my association with the MCAA reflects my belief in the importance of professionalism. It associates me with a group of peers who value the same quality.
I find the thing I like most about the MCAA now is?
The MCAA Masonry Showcase and the safety programs are essential to me for keeping abreast of the industry news and standards. I am grateful for the availability of these resources.
