A Local Touch With Global Impact

Born in July 1971, I hail from Southampton, Pennsylvania, where I’ve spent most of my life. I’m a proud Penn State University alum, holding a Bachelor of Science in Management with a focus on Parks and Recreation. Nature has always been a close friend of mine, and I even hold a minor in Environmental Interpretation/Outdoor Recreation.

Building Fences, Building Success

Throughout my career, I’ve gathered over 25 years of experience in the trade. My journey started with ACE Fence and Gates, and eventually led to the birth of Great Valley Fence in 2019. Our commitment to quality, backed by a lifetime installation warranty depending on the product, has earned us the trust of countless residential, commercial, and industrial clients.

Quality and Safety, Hand in Hand

But my expertise goes beyond running successful businesses. I’m a certified Playground Inspector, a qualification awarded by the National Recreation and Park Association. My commitment to quality even pushed me to acquire a Six Sigma Green Belt from Villanova University. You could say that when it comes to creating safe, sturdy, and beautiful outdoor spaces, I don’t leave any stone unturned!

A Heart for the Community

In my pursuit to serve the community, I’ve had the pleasure of serving as the President and Chairman of Penn-Tammany Greenway Coalition, Inc. for 10 wonderful years. As one of the proud founders of this non-profit, our mission has been to improve the health, economy, and environment of local communities through non-motorized, recreational trails and preserved greenways.

Skills Beyond the Fence

In the world of work, I believe that strategic planning, project management, and leadership are as essential as a well-built fence. But, I’m also skilled in team building, negotiation, and new business development. And, of course, I have a passion for public speaking, community outreach, and sustainability.

Beyond the Business

In the rare moments when I’m not working on a new project or planning a community event, you can find me engaging in my passion for environmental conservation, or crafting helpful tips and guides for my customers.

Sharing the Knowledge

One of my favorite parts of the job is sharing my industry knowledge with others. That’s why I frequently publish posts on the ACE Fence and Gates website offering expert advice and guidance. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a newbie to the world of fences and gates, you’re sure to find these resources informative and easy to understand.
