Ciminelli, Chairman & CEO of LPCiminelli, Inc. "Presently, we have three significant projects in the greater New York region and more opportunities on the immediate horizon so the timing was right to establish a permanent presence in the city."

He was most recently Project Executive/Co-Operations Manager for the Interior Division with Hunter Roberts Construction Group. Giordano is also an adjunct instructor at New York University, teaching numerous construction-related courses. +
