O’Shea recently hosted two students from the Capital Area Career Center for job shadow days. Matt Mangold and Logan Young were very interested in learning more about O’Shea Builders after David O’Shea III, Nick Clemens, and Dan Sullivan spoke to the CACC Building Trades students back in January.

The CACC visit is one of many school outreach efforts that O’Shea has undertaken over the past several months as part of our 2020 Strategic Plan initiative to build our “Farm Team” and help educate students about the many fulfilling career options in the trades. Since last October, members of the O’Shea field and office teams have visited Porta High School, Springfield High School, LLCC’s Highway Construction Careers Training Program, and CACC. 

Dooley recently earned his Bachelor’s degree in construction management from Bradley University. While in school he worked at Midwest Construction Professionals in Morton.

Alexander comes to O’Shea from Nigro Construction, Inc. in Las Vegas, NV. While at Nigro Construction Inc., Alexander gained experience with project management and served as a superintendent for projects in retail, hospitality, and healthcare.
