From the verdant forests of Canada to the bustling urban landscapes of the United States, my career has been a journey through the world of forestry and sustainable wood product development. As the founder of Black Locust Lumber, I leverage my expertise in international business, environmental awareness, and research and development to pioneer the use of underutilized forestry sources. I'm deeply committed to creating architectural products that not only stand the test of time but also contribute positively to our planet and its communities.Today, Black Locust Lumber is a global leader in sustainable building materials, with a diverse portfolio including award-winning innovation ProFlow Permeable Pavers™, UBBLI and more. Our continuous expansion into Europe since 2015 has allowed us to meet growing international demands while staying true to our mission of zero waste, decarbonization and our decades old commitment to include underserved communities.My lifelong commitment is to transform the industry by providing sustainable solutions that enhance both ecological and community well-being.
