Nicholas Berndt – Porsche South Orlando

Est. reading time: 5 mins

For some, satisfaction in the world of Porsche comes from feeling the car’s raw power and hearing the engine roar on an open road. To Nicholas Berndt, however, satisfaction stems from something a bit different: constructing the state-of-the-art LEED Certified dealerships that house these feats of German engineering. Having completed projects for nearly every U.S. […]

As a kid, when Ron Siliko thought about his dream job, he envisioned having his own set of keys to open a gymnasium, with a plan to shoot hoops anytime he wanted.

Est. reading time: 4 mins

You know you’re on to something when kids love eating salad.

This has been Josh McCollom’s experience with his two young children since joining Kalera—and it’s a motivating factor for […]

David Wickersham – Progressive Pipeline Management

Est. reading time: 6 mins

It’s the kind of record-breaking achievement that only gets noticed by those concerned with pipeline infrastructure.
