FAVORITE PLACE TO GRAB LUNCH IN DENVER?

I’ve only been here about a month but so far it’s
been Ian’s pizza by the ballpark but I’m also a
sucker for Mexican food and always looking for
suggestions.

WHAT’S THE BEST PLACE YOU’VE VISITED? Left: Kevin Cosgrove after
Coolest place I’ve ever been was probably finishing the PF Chang’s Rock
Yellowstone National Park. Most fun place was and Roll Marathon in Arizona.
probably Cabo during spring break with my buds.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN CONSTRUCTION?
I started out about 8 years ago working
on an interior demo crew for a small interior
TI contractor to help pay for college.

FAVORITE MOVIE?

That’s a tough one. I’d say it’s a tie between
Shawshank Redemption, Training Day and
Happy Gilmore depending on what kind of
mood I’m in.

WE’RE GOING SOCIAL!

We’re working to lay Shaw’s social path. This will be a good way for us to
continue to build relationships, keep people up-to-date on Shaw and industry
happenings and grow the Shaw team!
