Age: 36

Why did you select your profession?

I actually thought that architecture was the profession that I wanted to pursue. Once exposed to the industry at large, I discovered that the energy and sense of accomplishment from actually building things was much more rewarding to me than design.

Where do you see yourself professionally in 10 years?

I would love to continue to grow and prosper with the team at Shawmut Design and Construction. With the energy and talent possessed by this group, there is no telling how successful we can be.

What’s the best career advice you’ve ever been given?

Hard work and attention to detail will pay off.

What advice would you give your 22-year-old self?

Family should be as important as career.

How do you keep a work-life balance?

This is a very delicate line to walk. Technology has allowed me to do my job from almost anywhere, which has enabled me more flexibility to be an active father. ••••••
