Our Foundation

How would you describe the culture of this company from your perspective? Supportive. I’ve never worked anywhere where senior leadership is so personable and genuine. You can tell they truly care about each and every employee. They treat us all with respect and sincerity, which makes a huge difference in the day-to-day experience.

What advice would you give to someone considering welding as a career? Welding is a great career with good pay and endless opportunities—if you develop the right skill set. It’s physically demanding, but at the end of the day, seeing what you’ve created is both rewarding and gratifying.

How would you describe the culture of this company from your perspective? The culture here is incredibly grounded. It’s a flat structure where everyone’s voice matters, and people genuinely care about one another. We build meaningful relationships based on trust, collaboration, and kindness—which makes coming to work each day something to look forward to

How do you manage your crew to keep work on track while maintaining safety and quality? I once heard the phrase “slow is smooth and smooth is fast,” and I believe that applies here. Keeping work on track starts with planning and understanding your priorities. You have to work your plan, identify hazards, and make sure employees are trained on tasks they may not be familiar with. I always encourage asking questions and explaining the “why” behind what we do. Safety and quality go together, and the goal is to always install work in a clean, professional manner.

What led you to a career in quality control within the electrical construction industry? What led me into quality control was wanting to sharpen my ability to understand every aspect of the work and all the roles Enterprise encounters. I enjoy learning the ins and outs from every angle, whether it is from the specs, NEC, or overall electrical craftsmanship. It has also allowed me to build strong relationships with my work brothers by bringing up issues, consulting with the team, and being transparent in everything I do.

How does Enterprise support your efforts to keep teams safe and continuously improve safety performance? Enterprise does a great job supporting safety by providing the right resources, training, and leadership involvement. We have clear policies and procedures in place, along with ongoing training, which helps keep everyone informed and up to date. They also encourage open communication, so we can address concerns quickly and continuously improve. Whether it’s providing proper PPE, supporting stand-downs, or backing safety decisions in the field, the company makes it clear that safety is a priority. Steve Ayriss has always been there to help whenever I need it, and leadership as a whole has been very supportive as well. We work as a team, and it really shows in how we approach safety and take care of our crews.

How do you keep crews motivated, productive, and aligned with project goals? By letting them know we are there for them. We communicate daily, keep our door open to any situation that may arise, and make sure they have the tools and materials they need to be productive. We also listen to their ideas—sometimes they’re better than ours.

How do you manage your crew to keep work on track while maintaining safety and quality? Managing a crew of this size can be challenging at times, but having support from the other distribution foremen and our superintendent has been key. David Vacca, Juan Mejia, and Chase Tatum are people I rely on daily for ideas and support. A lot of our success comes from that teamwork and from the abilities of the crew itself. We stay on track by setting clear expectations, planning ahead, and making sure everyone understands the task at hand. Safety and quality are always part of that. It is about doing the job right the first time and making sure everyone goes home safe at the end of the day.
