4.3 BILLION dollars. That’s how many dollars worth of work Ed has managed as a superintendent during his career.

With over 30 years of construction superintendent experience in a broad range of projects, Ed has worked all over California on medical facilities, utility plans, hospitality, public works, military, education, office/retail, and correctional facilities.

A few of Ed’s project highlights include the East Medical Plaza, a four-story medical office building for Community Regional Medical Center, Leprino Cheese plant- the largest cheese plant in the world, Tachi Palace Hotel and Casino’s renovations & additions, and Fresno Chaffee Zoo’s award-winning sea lion exhibit.

While his resume is impressive, Ed is most thankful for the friendships he has built in the construction industry. Ed values relationships so much that he constructed the “Legacy Barn” on his property where he often hosts events and serves delicious BBQ. About 5,000 photos of friends and family line the barn’s interior walls.
