The Voice of Utah's Merit Shop
As the President of Associated Builders and Contractors of Utah, I am honored to be part of such an incredible association. The real strength of our organization comes from our people- you are the heart and soul of everything we do. It’s your dedication that defines us as a community, one that embraces the Merit Shop Philosophy as well as Open and Fair Competition.
From my perspective, Merit Shop is about recognizing hard work, talent, and commitment. It creates opportunities for everyone, no matter their background or where they come from, so everyone has a fair chance to succeed.
Open and Fair Competition to me means that every contractor, big or small, gets a shot at the work they deserve. Using this philosophy, everyone is guaranteed the equity of opportunity-not the equity of outcome.
The best part of leading the Utah Chapter is the relationships I’ve built with our members. I love the way you have welcomed me and allowed me to get to know you on a personal level. In my opinion, it’s not just about being a part of an association- it’s about joining a family of genuine professionals filled with integrity.
Thank you for everything you’ve done and continue to do for Associated Builders and Contractors, ABC wouldn’t be doing as well as we are today without your generosity, commitment, and support.
