Why I Wrote This Book
You didn’t inherit your company—you built it. From napkin sketches to your first hires, to late nights keeping projects on track, you’ve poured everything into your firm. That’s exactly where I started: as a finance leader inside firms that were growing faster than they could handle.
I watched brilliant teams stumble—not because the work wasn’t good, but because leadership load, culture drag, and unclear systems quietly ate away at progress. The question every founder asked me was the same: How do we keep growing without breaking what made us great?
That’s why I wrote Engineering Foundations That Scale. It’s not a step-by-step manual. It’s a thought-provoking guide for AEC founders who want to see their business differently—to understand the forces shaping their firm, to catch the hidden cracks before they widen, and to build a company that endures without losing its soul.
If you’re tired of fighting fires, if you’ve hit a ceiling that spreadsheets can’t explain, or if growth feels like it’s costing you more than it’s giving back, this book is for you.
Your firm doesn’t need more hustle. It needs stronger foundations. This book will show you how to find them—and how to build on them with clarity and confidence.
