COO & Cofounder
Richard grew up in the construction industry, in southern Illinois, starting first in residential markets and then migrating to commercial and institutional sectors.
Serving on various religious mission trips to Costa Rica, Richard identified the phrase of “Pura Vida” to embody the spirit and culture of him & his partner’s new founded company. Meaning “Pure Life”, the vision was to grow a company that was pure in heart, honesty, and values to both customers and employees alike.
