Before starting at Sierra, Dan worked as a wood framer, concrete finisher and carpenter with experience on tilt-ups – so he fit right in here at Sierra! Through the years he has made his way through the ranks and is now a Project Superintendent. Dan’s portfolio here includes projects of every type, but his biggest accomplishments have been Sierra’s largest projects to date; Structural Superintendent at Amazon BFI4 and Project Superintendent at Amazon Troutdale.

What brought you to Sierra? My brother-in-law got hired in the summer of 1999. He told me about them and I wanted to work for a general contractor so I call Sierra and fortunately, I was hired.

Why construction? Because it pays the bills and my last name isn’t Kardashian.

What are your three most overused words? “Basically” “you with me?” “what up?”
