Dave Kugler Project Manager

Dave’s upbringing was steeped in construction from an early age. Dave’s father, a skilled master mason and general contractor, instilled in him a deep appreciation for the art of construction. At just 7 years old, Dave, alongside his older brother and father, embarked on a remarkable journey to construct their family home. This experience sparked in Dave a passion that would shape his future endeavors. Even as he pursued higher education, Dave remained tethered to his construction roots, using his skills to pay his way through college by painting and installing sheetrock.

Despite diverse professional experiences, Dave’s passion for construction persisted. After brief ventures into business consultancy and health insurance, Dave found himself drawn back to the remodeling industry. For Dave, this return represents a full-circle moment, he believes to be the most personally fulfilling of all his endeavors.
