Buddy grew up in the Netherlands where he earned a degree in mechanical engineering technology and gained practical, hands-on experience in computer-assisted design and manufacturing. In the ten years after finishing his degree, he mingled work in his chosen career path with two years of teaching English in multiple cities across Asia. His broad international experience creates an understanding of varied perspectives and is core to his team based site management style.

Buddy moved to Toronto in 2010 where he managed the construction of high-end bars and restaurants. Since joining our team in 2011, Buddy’s pro-active site management style, strong attention to detail, schedule, and considerable passion for on-site team building have proved a strong asset to the Tectonica team.
