Tommy is a 6th generation Californian born and raised in the Northern California Bay Area. Tommy grew up exploring the wide variety of landscapes our coastal state has to offer and spent his summers at his Great Grandfather's hand-built log cabin in the Sierra Nevadas. Tommy gained an appreciation for the craftsmanship and techniques that were used in the early 20th century.

 

After studying Construction Management at Chico State University, he moved down to San Diego to start his professional career in the industry. With a background primarily in commercial tenant-improvement projects, he is familiar with working on demanding schedules and around occupied spaces. Tommy spearheads our Pre-Construction services and ensures that the field team can operate at its maximum capabilities. Detail oriented and proficient in utilizing all of his available resources, he is the keystone to our construction team.

Darrick comes from a family of contractors and was raised on Lake Michigan in the Chicagoland area. He spent his summers and weekends helping his father, an electrical contractor, and uncle dig trenches and pull wire. This led him to develop a deep respect and passion for all things construction.

 

He chose to follow this passion and earn his degree in construction management from Illinois State University. After earning his degree, he received a job offer in Ventura, CA and started his professional career in contracting. Fast forward to well over a decade later, he still has the same love of the construction world that he did as his father's young apprentice.

 

Darrick spends his free time woodworking and playing multiple musical instruments and recording music in his recording studio along with rooting on all Chicago sports teams.
