Beau is a family man, married to his high school sweetheart since 2008, father to two beautiful daughters, and has had the pleasure of being able to be immensely involved in many of their activities. Whether it be coaching, fundraising, or building dance props for his daughter’s state-champion high school dance team, he loves to be an involved father.

At McCormack Construction, Beau is responsible for projects from their conception to close out. He works closely with owners and design teams early in the process, helping with design development and budgeting at several design milestones. Once the design is complete, he estimates and solicits bids to sub-contractors to meet owners’ budgets and value engineers when projects are over budget. After bids are finalized, he will write subcontracts and help with job start-ups.  When projects start construction, Beau is responsible for holding McCormack superintendents and project engineers accountable for maintaining project schedules and budgets.
