I am originally from just outside of Boston the city of Chelsea by the sea.  I lived there until I started High School. We moved to the North Shore and I went to high school at Northeast Metro Tech in Wakefield.   I Made my way up to the North Shore over the years starting in Revere, then Salem, next Beverly, and now living in Rowley.   

I have always had a major passion for the building industry.  I have always played with tools and loved discovering how things work from a young age. I learned a lot in my backyard and from being around my grandfather who owned his own business in the trades. My formal training started when I studied carpentry at a technical high school.  Through all of this, I have learned that my passion extends through every part of a project; I truly enjoy seeing projects through to completion.

I knew from an early age I wanted to work for myself and my whole childhood focused on this.   I have worked in construction my whole life and it is all I know.  I worked for a few builders to start but always knew I needed to build a business based on my own beliefs to feel fulfilled. I started my business at the age of 24.  

My business is unique in that, even as CEO, I am accessible to my customers and remain their primary point of contact from start to finish.  I have a lot of hands-on practical experience and I do not hesitate to jump in if something needs attention. 

Communication is very important to me, my team, and my trade partners. Years of building relationships with others in the construction and related industries keep lines of communication open and at the forefront of my company’s mission. Supervision and project management are very important to me.  

My plan for the business and the industry has always been to strive for the long term and build everything to last the test of time.  I have been fortunate enough to learn and work alongside some amazing craft workers over the years.  Each of them builds and creates amazing works of art to last for generations to come.  I plan to be a lifetime learner and pass on all that I have learned to the next generation as well. 

Most fulfilling:

Is taking old houses, bathrooms, kitchens, and new or old land, and making them much better than before to give them a whole new life.  Also, seeing a happy customer, meeting different people over the years, seeing others around me do well, and passing on my knowledge to others.  

I believe hard work and discipline are what leads to success. It is humbling to remember where I started and reflect on that to strive to do better and better.  To ensure continued success, I hold myself to a high standard in each of these areas.

I started working in the construction trades heavily at fifteen. I started at the bottom and have worked my way up over the last 16 years. Although I am considered young in my industry I have already established a time-tested foundation of knowledge for my business. I have been very fortunate to work mainly on the North shore coast in Ipswich, Rockport, and Gloucester.   

My Wife and I Love the North Shore, especially riding and walking around the beautiful coastal towns. We got married in November 2022 in the beautiful town of Topsfield at The Commons 1854. It was a beautiful and quintessential North Shore setting that we will always remember fondly.  We are now expecting our first child and couldn’t be happier to start a family in this community.

I am honored to be a part of this magazine and have enjoyed reflecting on my favorite parts of being a local business on the North Shore. I look forward to connecting with the people of Topsfield and learning about many other great local businesses in the community.  Putting a face and story to the name of a business is a great way to stay connected.
