Ryan Pinkerton agrees. He worked his way up from apprentice plumber to director of the company’ s Western housing market.“ I knew I didn’ t want to attend college. I wanted to learn a trade because I like doing hands-on work,” he says.“ Some people are surprised when I say I’ m a plumber. They think it’ s about fixing toilets all day. But it’ s really about building new homes and being part of historic projects.”
In his 10 years at the company, Pinkerton has helped build housing on military bases around the country.“ My favorite city to work in was Boston. If you want to travel, Colorado, Oklahoma, Kansas and Louisiana are just some of the places we have projects. It’ s a great opportunity to explore!” He says now is the time to start a career in the trades.“ There’ s a huge demand for tradespeople. If you’ re not sure college is for you, this is an option that can give you just as many opportunities as a degree. This company gives you a way to start working and making money while training for a career.”
