Early in our careers, Shane and I met on the Presidio Parkway Project in San Francisco, and it was clear from the beginning that we shared an ambitious vision for change in the AEC industry. I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know many individuals at VEC over the years, and I’ve followed the company’s growth trajectory for years with admiration. What has led me to VEC is simple: the opportunity to build something amazing with industry-leading innovators. VEC has undergone an incredible transformation into a world-class company, and it excites me to believe that this is just the beginning. This all comes down to the people who make VEC what it is today, and the amazing talent that we will continue to attract to our organization moving forward, who share our vision to change the industry and the world.

I’ve had a chance over the last decade plus to engage with owners, builders, and designers on projects all over the world. One key insight is that many of the challenges are shared by each stakeholder group, but they are approaching solutions from a different perspective. I bring a unique and broad industry perspective that will help our clients work better together as effective teams across the supply chain by bringing clarity to the challenges they face and driving innovative solutions that position VEC as a trusted partner. My background in data and AI also brings a perspective on the importance of data governance and standardization, which becomes increasingly important as more of the industry adopts cutting-edge tools. My hope is to leverage this expertise to modernize and streamline VEC’s operations internally, and to deliver value to our clients to help the best build better.

VEC was built on innovation from the start. Our proven track record of using advanced technology solutions to deliver real-world value for projects doesn’t need to be reinvented, because the strong foundation is there. But we need to evolve, and help our client evolve with us. Innovation is in our DNA, and that necessitates change and growth as technology evolves. We are in a period of unprecedented change across the industry and the world at large, and my goal is to build systems and processes that will allow us to stay ahead of the curve. The opportunity for the next phase of growth at VEC is to expand our breadth and our depth to deliver value to our clients across the entire project lifecycle.
