Dave has been working in the building construction industry, with a particular emphasis in healthcare work under the scrutiny of the State of Florida’s Agency for Healthcare Administration since his graduation from the University of Florida in 1983. After receiving his Bachelor’s degree in Building Construction from UF, he began his career as a Field Engineer/Assistant Project Manager with a Florida Panhandle-based construction company. Over the next five years, he was promoted to Project Manager and had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects featuring multiple construction systems and building types.

Dave relocated to Macon, Georgia, in 1988 to work as Project Manager with a national company and had the opportunity to complete projects throughout the country. Here, he continued to develop an expertise in various types of projects, including professional office buildings, surgery centers and other healthcare related projects.

In 1990, Dave returned to work with a regional contractor with opportunities for expanding his professional responsibilities. Over the next 18 years, he advanced from Project Manager/Estimator to Vice President, then to President, responsible for estimating and/or managing projects with a volume exceeding $75 million. Again, Dave was able to expand his knowledge and experience by completing new types of projects while continuing to gain additional experience with the projects that comprise a great deal of his portfolio. Dave’s resume to date includes a project volume that exceeds $150 million with a strong emphasis in healthcare.

Dave has had the opportunity to work with friend and business associate John Hinson since 1995. Their successful collaboration was enhanced in 2008 when the two joined with Chuck Mathis (now retired) to found the PHM Group. Dave has been the President of PHM since its inception.
