That Guy Riggs

I was born and grew up on Long Island with my amazing parents and 3 younger siblings. I graduated from Chaminade High School, an all-boys catholic prep school in Mineola, and then went on to get my bachelor's degree from the University of Wisconsin. During the summers and winters before and during college, I worked at Feinstein Iron Works Inc, a structural/misc Metals fabricator & installer operating in the greater NYC region. After graduating from UW-Madison (ON WISCONSIN!), I started my career at Magnetic Builder's Group in NYC. While working at Magnetic, I was involved in nearly every aspect of the Hoxton Hotel Project. I worked closely with the principals and learned more than I would have imagined possible. At the close of this project, I left the company and joined Suffolk Construction as an Assistant Project Manager. I have experience with deep foundations, structural steel, facade systems, and 3D MEP coordination. I am a Certified Project Management Professional (PMP) and LEED Green Associate, as well as a member of the National Institute of Building Science, ASHRAE Affiliate Member, and active participant in ACE Mentors of GNYC.

My professional Interests include sustainability, emerging technology & productivity tracking. In my free time, I love to read as much as I can, Hike, Draw, and run around snapping pictures of everything I can.
