Meet Mike...
Born and raised in Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania, just outside of Philadelphia, Mike discovered his passion for construction and entrepreneurship at an early age. Despite societal pressure to pursue higher education, he knew that his path lay elsewhere. After completing high school, Mike dove headfirst into the construction trades, guided by a strong interest in building and business.
His journey began by working alongside his father, a real estate investor, who instilled in him the value of hard work. Mike’s father taught him many things, but above all, he emphasized the importance of dedication and perseverance.
Eager to expand his knowledge and experience, Mike sought opportunities with other general contractors and specialty tradespeople, honing his skills in various aspects of construction.
Driven by ambition and a desire for independence, Mike ventured into entrepreneurship, starting his own general contracting business in 2009. Despite the challenges of balancing a new business and a new marriage, he remained steadfast in his determination to pursue his dream of becoming a homebuilder.
Through perseverance and dedication, Mike seized opportunities to build new construction homes, establishing himself as a reputable homebuilder known for high-quality craftsmanship and luxury finishes.
With an ever-expanding portfolio of custom luxury homes and renovations, Mike continues to push the boundaries of excellence in the construction industry. His journey is a testament to the values instilled in him by his father and the power of determination, hard work, and a relentless pursuit of one’s dreams.
