Who we are.

After watching an episode of NOVA on PBS highlighting the Central Artery Tunnel Project in Boston, MA, aka, "The Big Dig" Kevin was mesmerized and intrigued, to say the least. At the time he was working in sales earning a Business degree at the University of Montana. However, this world in Boston consumed him. He wanted to be a part of something bigger. Eight months later Kevin, his bride Stacy, their two young boys, Dominick and Anthony moved to Washington state where Kevin could pursue an Engineering degree. The goal, to be a part of a highway mega project. 

In 2004 Kevin was hired as a Survey Technician with Thomas F. Upton Land Surveying. This is when opportunity met preparation! Kevin's world changed, he was exposed to the amazing and history centric profession of Land Surveying. He was hooked!
