The firm began as a way for me to share my lifelong passion for designing and building with others. My grandfather, father and uncles were builders and I would go to work with them as a kid and, later, working along side them. I designed my first house at 16 years old and two weeks later I was building it in one of my father’s developments in Central New Jersey. That feeling of drawing something on paper and then building it with my own hands is as exciting to me now as it was 34 years ago.
