A Journey of Dedication and Expertise
With 29 years of experience in the construction industry, Ben’s career began in 1996 in State College, Pennsylvania, where he worked as a residential framer. After nearly a decade of hands-on experience, he answered a higher calling and joined the U.S. Navy as a Seabee. There, he deepened his expertise through both peacetime and combat-related construction, along with humanitarian relief efforts.
Following his military service, Ben pursued self-employment, focusing on commercial and residential remodeling. His leadership and technical skills were further sharpened during an 11-year tenure at Sovran Building Systems, where he served as Chief Estimator and later Senior Project Manager. In that role, he managed custom residential and commercial construction projects, earning a reputation for precision, professionalism, and problem-solving.
Now based in Florida for the past 13 years, Ben continues to bring that same level of commitment and excellence to every project. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Economics from Penn State University, combining strategic thinking with field-tested expertise.

Whether navigating a challenging trail or tackling a complex build, Ben approaches every endeavor with curiosity and commitment.
Industry Leader and Advocate
A respected voice in the industry, Ben serves on the Board of Directors for ABC North Florida. He is deeply invested in the advancement of the regional construction community and remains a staunch advocate for integrity, craftsmanship, and mentorship in the field.
