Spanning 36 years in the construction industry, Adam started his journey building crib docks at the age of 16 which led to large scale framing, crew foreman and eventually Construction Engineering. Wanting to apply his experience and knowledge, Adam continued into Project Management where for several years he enjoyed supervising numerous large scale projects on the Muskoka lakes.
Adam's family roots in Muskoka, dating back to the early 1900's, give him a unique knowledge of Muskoka and a profound understanding and deep appreciation for the lakes and landscape. Coming from a long line of builders, Adam comes by his core values honestly and it wasn't long after Project Management that the prospect of owning his own business came to fruition.
