Kassman - President
Jeff has over 14 years of professional
construction experience in positions ranging from Assistant Project
Manager to Executive Vice President/ Chief Operating Officer.
After spending his youth on drywall and carpentry crews in New York
he studied architecture for one year at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
Jeff’s taste for design, but true love of building made a
Construction Management degree a better fit.
He completed his formal education at The University of Maryland at
College Park in 1986. Maryland has been home ever since.
After graduating, Jeff
worked for New York based Real Estate developer S/A Associates with his
primary undertaking being the completion of a 37 story commercial office
tower in Baltimore, Maryland. Once
completed, Jeff managed the tenant leasing and construction process.
Following this 2 year stint, he joined General Contracting firm,
The Leapley Company, in the capacity of Project Manager. Several hundred projects, and several hundred thousand square
feet of construction later Jeff was promoted into the management ranks;
first as General Manager of the firm’s Baltimore Branch office, and
later as Chief Operating Officer at the firm’s Washington, D.C.
headquarters.
Jeff has a history of
pushing the limits of traditional roles and positions.
As a Project Manager he developed a reputation for reaching beyond
the construction scope and delving into design, leasing and other aspects
of his projects. By so doing,
Jeff found that he was better able to understand the needs and motivations
of his clients, and offer proactive suggestions as to how the construction
process could satisfy the ultimate goals.
Instead of just “managing the construction” Jeff began to
represent the client’s interest as it related to construction.
He took this same approach, as he expanded his role of Chief
Operating Officer to incorporate all of the firm’s financial aspects
including banking, bonding and financial reporting.
Jeff’s
aggressive approach to work has afforded him broad and balanced
experience. His core skills
of managing and expediting construction projects are complimented by a
thorough knowledge of finance, administration, personnel management,
insurance, accounting and other related elements of the business.
Jeff continues to prescribe to the attitude that going one step
further, putting in a bit more effort, and contributing one more idea
serves the interest of all involved.
KasCon is an extension of that thought process.
