I’m excited to share my professional biography, highlighting my 25+ years of experience in construction, energy efficiency, and strategic project management. I am passionate about driving operational efficiency, leading high-performing teams, and implementing sustainable business strategies. Whether in construction, manufacturing, or energy conservation, my goal is to enhance project execution, optimize costs, and support organizations in achieving long-term success.

In construction management, leadership is more than a title—it’s the foundation of success. Drawing from decades of experience, Gary Mierkey emphasizes the critical role of resilience, innovation, and servant leadership in navigating the unique challenges of construction projects. Resilience enables leaders to adapt to changing conditions and uncover solutions by fostering collaboration. Innovation drives creative problem-solving, essential for addressing evolving demands. Servant leadership, marked by empathy and clear communication, builds trust and alignment among stakeholders. Together, these principles transform obstacles into opportunities, shaping not only successful projects but also strong, cohesive teams.

I’m excited to share an update on my professional journey and achievements. With over 20 years in the construction and manufacturing industries, I’ve had the privilege of leading teams and driving growth as President of The SLS Group and as a Board Member at Exchange Income Corporation. My career has been marked by successfully managing and expanding Advanced Window, Inc., overseeing estimating, sales, and project coordination, and spearheading strategic initiatives at The SLS Group. I believe strongly in the adage “the harder I work, the luckier I get,” and I am committed to delivering excellence through vision, experience, and relentless dedication. I look forward to connecting with fellow professionals and exploring new opportunities where I can add value.
