Her involvement with PDCA runs deep. Lina was instrumental in forming the PDCA Florida Chapter and currently serves as its president, helping build momentum, grow membership and strengthen regional engagement within the driven pile industry.

She is a firm believer in the benefits available through industry associations; "Networking and forming partnerships. Finding people we can talk to about projects. Networking is important for us with vendors, other contractors for joint ventures, and even just to have conversations about the industry."

As a PDCA Board member, Lina is passionate about education, industry collaboration and expanding visibility and opportunity within construction. Her energy, perspective and dedication make her a valuable addition to PDCA's leadership as the association looks toward the future.

Explained Tommy about his involvement in industry organizations, "It provides a very important opportunity to establish relationships with those who are going to be part of your career, and often your success. You get to know existing and future clients and competitors, and most importantly, many of those with whom you come into contact through industry organizations can teach you something. That alone helps you become the best you can be at what you do. I encourage everyone in any given industry to strongly consider active participation in your industry. I am excited to be part of the PDCA leadership and help make the organization the best industry asset it can be." 

Tommy earned his B.S. in Plant Science from Fresno State and began his career in commercial agriculture before joining the family business. He now lives in Bakersfield with his wife and three children--and is always ready to roll up his sleeves to help the industry move forward.
