Luke Albers, Project Executive

"There is really no average day," Luke Albers, Project Executive, said. "We're always doing something different, and that's one of the things I like about Opus. You could be interacting with a client, selling a job or trying to win a proposal one day. The next day you could be coordinating jobsite activities, delivering a completed project or managing architects and engineers during the design phase of a project."

Marco Alfaro, Superintendent (Retired)

"If they're successful, I'll be successful, and Opus will be successful in the end," Marco Alfaro, now retired, said of helping people as he supervised the activities of our jobsites. Marco joined our team in the early 80s and worked his way up through the ranks, retiring as a Superintendent. "To me, Opus is like a family. When I was coming up the ranks I had had a lot of help from a lot of the superintendents, a lot of the foreman, a lot of co-workers."

Peter Carlsen, Superintendent

"Being an entry-level project manager at Opus means something completely different than at another construction company or general contractor," said Peter Carlsen, now Associate Superintendent. "You're given a full breadth of responsibility. The best thing about being an Associate Project Manager is that you get to work under someone who is very knowledgeable, and there's a lot to learn."

Beth Duyvejonck, Executive Vice President, Construction

Beth Duyvejonck, Regional Vice President of Construction, started at Opus fresh out of college. In addition to project management, Beth has also played a significant role in recruitment. "One of my goals as a recruiter and a trainer at Opus has been to encourage us to be more diverse. There are more and more women that are working inside of construction both on the management side and on the trades. Nothing makes me happier than seeing that."

Alex Lord, Senior Project Manager

Alex Lord, LEED AP BD+C, Senior Project Manager, knew he wanted to be in the building industry since the eighth grade. He joined Team Opus after college, where he's been able to build his own career. "What also excites me in regards to Opus is also the different buildings and the new experiences you get every day," Alex said "There's nothing that's the same."

Nick Murnane, Vice President & General Manager

On what he likes about his job, Nick Murnane, Vice President & General Manager, said, "I think it's the excitement of everyday having a challenge and something different. It's really a motivator. Being a young developer at Opus, you are given a lot of responsibility. You're given an opportunity to run with a project to see what you can do."

Greg Swanson, Field Coordinator (Retired)

"I'm motivated every day to create value, whether it's helping somebody be better on the jobsite, helping somebody communicate. I'm motivated by the success that they have. There's some personal success and satisfaction but there's something even more satisfying when a group of people come together and create that value."
