I began my career with ACI in February 1996 as a mechanical helper. After going through the Steamfitters Local 602 program, I graduated in 2001 and worked in the field as a journeyman until the spring of 2007. That’s when I had the opportunity to step into a project manager role. From there, I moved up to Senior PM around 2016 and, in 2021, transitioned to Projects Division Manager.

I led the Projects Division from 2021 through September 2024, when I was approached about transferring to JPG to become VP of the Construction Division. I worked with the JPG team from October 2024 through August 2025. In August 2025, the opportunity arose to return to ACI—this time as President—and I happily accepted.

I took on the role of President because it gives me the chance to continue building on the successful company ACI has grown to become. ACI has always believed in developing talent from within, and I plan to carry that forward. It’s a model that has served us well.

Looking ahead, I’m excited for the opportunity to grow in this role and take on new challenges. I’m 48 years old, married, and raising two sons in Mechanicsville, MD—and I look forward to building a future here at ACI that reflects the same values of commitment, stability, and growth that guide my own family life.

We’re growing our team. Please join us in welcoming our newest hires!
